Inspiration.
The movement of air on and out the lungs is called respiration. The movement of air into the lungs is called inhalation (inspiration). The movement of air out of the lungs is called exhalation (expiration).
Inspiration is the process of inhaling air into the lungs, while exhalation is the process of expelling air out of the lungs. These processes are vital for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the body, which is necessary for bodily functions and maintaining life.
The air that is inhaled passes through the throat. More specifically, it passes through the trachea on its way to the lungs.
Expired means past use or dead. Inspired (inspire) means to be enlivened or filled with exalting emotion.
This is part of breathing in, or inspiration. The trachea splits into the two bronchi (singular: bronchus) one of which goes to each lung.
Oxygen is the gas that enters the blood during inspiration. It is taken into the lungs from the outside air and then diffuses into the blood vessels in the lungs.
Inspiration - the process of breathing in. The lungs expand and take in air.
Inspiration happens when the pressure inside the lungs is lower than the atmospheric pressure (outside) and air rushes into the lungs. Expiration is when the air inside the lungs is higher than the atmospheric pressure and the air rushes out of the lungs. If the intrapleural pressure (pressure within the pleura of the lungs) isn't maintained then the pressure in the lungs can't differentiate between inspiration and expiration and so the lung collapses.

As air passes through the upper airways during inspiration, it gets humidified by the mucous membranes that line the airways. These membranes contain glands that produce mucus, which adds moisture to the air. Additionally, the warming of the air as it moves through the respiratory tract helps increase its humidity.
The tracchea runs down the neck and branches into the left and right lungs.
