For each muscle listed below, choose whether it is involved in inspiration or expiration and choose if it is used during normal ventilation, forced ventilation, or both situations: Scalenes: Involved in inspiration and used during normal ventilation. Internal intercostals: Involved in expiration and used during forced ventilation. External intercostals: Involved in inspiration and used during normal ventilation. Diaphragm: Involved in inspiration and used during both normal and forced ventilation. Internal and external obliques: Involved in expiration and used during both normal and forced ventilation.
