Neck injuries can sever the nerves that control contraction of the diaphragm. How would this affect breathing?

(A) It would increase inspiration.
(B) It would increase expiration.
(C) It would reduce the force of inspiration.
(D) It would reduce the force of expiration.

My guess is (C).

Respuesta :

C. It would reduce the force of inspiration.

Why C: Neck injuries can affect the diaphragm by causing lack of oxygen or a shortness in breath. This means it reduces the force of inspiration instead of expiration.

So yes you were right, Smarty Pants! :)
