Hello, May I get help on this question very soon please? I do not understand it. Question: You're talking to one of your grandparents on the phone, and they are telling you about some really neat things they just learned about the lungs on a documentary. Specifically, they are telling you about this really cool feedback loop where lower in CO2 in the blood in near skeletal muscles than usual to leads your brain to trigger a whole bunch of responses in how you breathe. They mention about how your medulla tells your systemic arterioles to constrict, for your external intercostals to contract less, and your lung muscles to contract less. You tell them how much you love to hear that they are learning about the respiratory system, but you gently note that the documentary must have got one thing wrong.The documentary was incorrect because (see image) The image contains a series of statements discussing the role of intercostal muscles and lungs in breathing:1. "The intercostal muscles that are not responsible for chest cavity expansion"2. "Lungs don't have muscles"3. "YES"4. "This isn't a feedback loop"5. "The intercostal muscles are the only thing that are responsible for lung expansion"**Explanation:**The statements address common misconceptions about the respiratory system. Intercostal muscles, located between the ribs, contribute to the process of breathing by facilitating the expansion and contraction of the chest cavity. However, they are not solely responsible for this action, as the diaphragm plays a crucial role. The lungs themselves lack muscles and rely on surrounding musculature, like the intercostal muscles and diaphragm, for expansion and contraction. The text also notes that there is no feedback loop involved in their basic functioning, likely emphasizing the mechanical aspect of breathing movements.
