27
External Intercostals insertion
Links each rib to the adjacent rib
28
External Intercostals use
Elevate ribs and stiffens interspaces
29
Internal Intercostals description
11 connected muscles that fill the inner portions of the rib interspaces (except at the back of the rib cage)
30
Internal Intercostals use
