What is the difference between a positive pressure breather and a negative pressure breather?
Definition
A positive pressure breather such as a frog pushes air down to their lungs. A negative pressure breather such as a human, creates suction with the diaphram and when air is inhaled, the rib cage expands as muscles contract and the diaphragm moves down (contracts). When air is exhaled, the rib cage gets smaller as rib muscles relax and the diaphragm relaxes (moves up)
