Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The muscular and nervous systems enable the involuntary breathing mechanism. The main muscles in inhalation and exhalation are the diaphragm and the intercostals (shown in blue), as well as other muscles. Exhalation is a passive action, as the lungs recoil and shrink when the muscles relax.
