bluestinger66's definitions
a dome-shaped muscular partition separating the thorax from the abdomen in mammals. It plays a major role in breathing, as its contraction increases the volume of the thorax and so inflates the lungs.
Chickens don’t have a diaphragm, and their lungs can’t contract. They breathe by moving their entire ribcage to draw air into the lungs. That’s why you can accidentally stop a chick from breathing if you hold it with a firm grip. Chickens also have air sacs and a double respiration cycle.
