Tigers are mammals so their circulatory system is also very similar to that of humans. The tiger's heart has 4 chambers; there are 2 different heart chambers, one being for transporting the blood and the other for receiving the blood. The ventricles are much larger than the atria and their thick, muscular walls are used to forcefully pump the blood from the heart to the body and lungs. Answered By John Thomas

∙ 14y agoSimple answer: mammals use lungs to take in air, and exchange useful oxygen for carbon dioxide. The oxygen is then diffused into the blood which circulates to all tissues. Carbon dioxide and other waste products diffuse back into the blood. Waste gas is carried back to the lungs and is expelled.
This is different from cellular respiration, which is concerned with the micro-process of obtaining oxygen and combining it with glucose to form water, carbon dioxide and ATP (what cells use for chemical energy).

Is vocalization a function of respiratory system?
Yes ... a secondary function.
The function of the respiratory system?
The respiratory system has as its primary function the exchange of gases. In animals that means carbon dioxide is released and oxygen is absorbed, in plants they do it the other way around, they inspire carbon dioxide and respire oxygen.
What iare the physiological functions of the respiratory system?
The physiological function of the respiratory system is helping our body breathe clean air (oxygen) and breathing out carbon dioxide.
What is the function of the skin in the respiratory system?
