During infancy respiration is mainly abdominal, because the thoraxis^already cylindrical and admits of but httle further outward negative intrathoracic pressure occasioned by the descent of thediaphragm exerts its effects mainly on the lower rilDS. The atmosphericpressure causes the most j-ielding portion of the thorax to cave in (costo-chondral articulations) and thus a depressed groove, parallel to the
