👉 The term "thoracopagus" refers to a type of muscular contraction that is characteristic of the chest muscles in humans. It involves contracting the diaphragm, or the muscle that separates the chest cavity from the abdominal cavity, as it moves upwards and downwards during this process. In general, thoracic muscles are responsible for the movement of the rib cage and the back. They are also involved in breathing, which is a vital process for maintaining oxygenation and carbon dioxide elimination within the body
