Lyrics:

The diaphragm
That’s what I am
I’m A dome-shaped sheet of muscle
used in respiration

The diaphragm
That’s what I am
An anatomical landmark that separates the chest, from the abdomen

Where is the diaphragm
Let’s take a look and see
It’s below the lungs
In the lower thoracic cavity

I’m on the floor of the Thoracic Cavity
That contain your Heart and Lungs
And the roof of the Abdominal Cavity
that holds some vital organs

I’m made up of Muscle
and Tendon
Let’s look at some names that relate to them

Here’s a look at the Inferior Diaphragm
It’s a view looking up at the bottom of where the lower rib cage spans

This is the Central Tendon broken into three parts
The Right, Middle, and Left Leaflet
Is a Tendinous work of art

Attached to the first three lumbar vertebrae and their intervertebral discs
Is the Right Crus It’s a Tendon thanks for learning about this

The is only attached to the
bodies of first two lumbar vertebrae
These tendons form a tether
for muscular contraction in me

I’m mostly made of Muscle that you are seeing now
Let’s take a look to see what passes through my center in which I’m so proud

This is the Vena Cava it’s a large vein
That runs through me
carrying deoxygenated blood into the heart from your body

Here you see the Aorta the bodies
largest artery
It supplies oxygenated blood to the circulatory system see

What's also important to notice is the
Oesophagus
It connects the throat to the stomach
In all of us

The diaphragm
That’s what I am
I’m a dome-shaped sheet of muscle
Used in respiration

The diaphragm
That’s what I am
An anatomical landmark that separates the chest, from the abdomen

When you Inhale oxygen while taking any kind of breath
Your Diaphragm Flattens and Expands your rib cage before it takes a rest

Then you exhale ridding the body of carbon dioxide
Your Diaphragm goes back to it’s Dome- Shape now resting inside

I’m attached to you in more places than your lumbar vertebrae
We’ll take a look at where these are that help to keep me in place

I’m attached to your Xiphoid Process
It’s part of your Sternum
And to the Cartilage of Ribs 7 through 12
Learning is so fun

Thoracic Diaphragm is another name I go by
Breath deep when singing about me now goodbye

The diaphragm
That’s what I am
I’m A dome-shaped sheet of muscle
used in respiration

The diaphragm
That’s what I am
An anatomical landmark that separates the chest, from the abdomen
