QuestionChoice
The transversus abdominis is labelled. The transversus abdominis provides crucial support by compressing the abdominal viscera, increasing intra-abdominal pressure, and stabilising the trunk and pelvis. This muscle plays a key role in maintaining core stability.

Compression of pelvic contents
QuestionChoice
The transversus abdominis is labelled. The transversus abdominis provides crucial support by compressing the abdominal viscera, increasing intra-abdominal pressure, and stabilising the trunk and pelvis. This muscle plays a key role in maintaining core stability. The rectus abdominis can contribute to rib depression, especially when the trunk is flexed. By contracting, it pulls the lower ribs downward, assisting in forceful exhalation and increasing intra-abdominal pressure.
