s the Lungs. The mechanism of res-piration is not unlike that of a pair of bellows. Whenthe handles are raised the inside of the bellows is madelarger, and the air rushes in to fill the extra space. The chest is a tight box, with only one opening, andthat at the top, — the larynx. If this box be suddenlyenlarged the air will rush in through the opening; thisis called inspiration. When the box ceases to enlarge,no more air enters. Immediately all the parts that wereunder a tension to enlarge the box return to their for-mer condition. Thus the box is made smaller and theair rushes out of the opening at the top ; this is calledexpiration. From this we conclude that air enters thelungs because the chest is made larger; and that it leaves 132 THE ESSENTIALS OF HEALTH. the lungs because the chest is made smaller.

Fig. 43. The position of the lungs, and their relation to certain organs :(1) the trachea ; (2) the clavicle ; (3) the ribs ; (4) the lungs; (5) a darkcurved line, showing the position of the heart ; (6) the diaphragm, extend-ing in a curved direction from one figure to the other; (7) the liver;(8) the stomach ; (9) the sternum.

Thelungs rise above the collar bone, 2, to form the apex ofthe chest: below, they rest upon the curved diaphragm,6, which divides the thoracic from the abdominal cavity. RESPIRATION. 133
