About this document

Comparative Anatomy of Animal Respiration by mariannealminar is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The respiratory system in animals functions to provide oxygen for cellular respiration and remove carbon dioxide. Invertebrates use gills or tracheae, while vertebrates have lungs or gills depending on their habitat. Aquatic animals typically respire through diffusion or gills, whereas terrestrial animals have specialized organs to minimize water loss during respiration.
