Solution

1) Inhalation: It involves bringing in air from outside the body into the lungs. When we breathe in, the size of our chest increases.

This happens because when air enters, the lungs expand and the ribs move outwards. Simultaneously, the diaphragm contracts and becomes flat. Thus, the size of our chest increases.
