Solution

The correct option is C Diaphram
Between the thoracic cavity and the abdominal cavity, there is an organ like a flexible sheet called the diaphragm.
When the diaphragm moves downward, we breathe in and the incoming air fills the alveoli in the lungs. When the diaphragm moves upwards, air in the lungs is pushed out.
