Muscle that daises ribs in forceful inhalation?

Rhomboideus Major The rhomboid major helps to hold the scapula (and thus the upper limb) onto the ribcage. It also acts to retract the scapula, pulling it towards the vertebral column, and downwardly rotates the scapula with respect to the glenohumeral joint. It works collectively with the levator scapulae to elevate the medial border of the scapula.

Is rounded shoulders called scapula retraction?

No, when the scapula is retracted it is pinched backwards with both scapula coming closer to the spine. Scapula protraction is when the shoulders are rounded forward by the pectoralis major and or pectoralis minor. The middle section of the trapezius and the rhomboids are responsible for scapula retraction.

How does serratus anterior function as an antagonist to the rhomboideus muscles?

The serratus anterior is responsible for the protraction of the scapula. It pulls the scapula forward and around the rib cage, like when someone throws a punch. Often referred to as the "boxer's muscle". It is also responsible for stabilizing the scapula and assisting in its rotation upward.
