Rat, like all mammals, have noses and mouths which lead to the lungs. When rats breathe in the air, the oxygen travel to the lungs where gas exchange occurs.

lungs
no, it doesn't, but oxygen does.
Kangaroo rats get oxygen the same way all mammals do - through their respiratory system, comprising the nose/mouth, trachea and lungs. Even in underground burrows, there is air.
Oxygen enters the blood stream through the air sacs in you lungs.
Rats, like other mammals, have lungs that facilitate the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. They inhale oxygen-rich air, which diffuses into the bloodstream, and exhale carbon dioxide, a waste product of metabolism. The lungs also play a role in regulating body temperature and maintaining pH balance in the blood. Overall, their lungs are essential for respiration and sustaining life.
Rats breathe through their nostrils. They have a well-developed respiratory system that includes lungs, allowing them to take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide. Their breathing rate can vary depending on factors like activity level and environment.
It has to get oxygen and get rid of CO2
Blood picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide in the lungs.
Blood picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide in the lungs.
Because you suck in air through your mouth or nose and it goes into your lungs... it's called breathing =)
