The system of organs involved in the acquisition of oxygen and the elimination of carbon dioxide by an organism. The lungs and gills are the two most important structures of vertebrates involved in the phase known asexternaml respiratory, orhttp://www.answers.com/topic/gaseous exchanges, between the blood and environment. Internal respiration refers to the gaseous exchanges which occur between the blood and cells. Certain other structures in some species of vertebrates serve as respiratory organs; among these are thehttp://www.answers.com/topic/integument or skin of fishes and http://www.answers.com/topic/amphibian.

The cardiovascular system consists of the heart, veins and arteries. Which are all part of the network which moves blood around your body. Your respiratory system is your lungs and airways. This system is responsible for gas exchange (taking in oxygen and expelling CO2). They work hand in hand, your respiratory system takes in oxygen and passes it into your cardiovascular system, which transports it to all of your muscles and organs. The muscles and organs pass back CO2 which is then expelled through your respiratory system.

The organs of the respiratory system are; the lungs, the diaphragm, the heart, the circulatory system, the blood. There are two types commonly considered to be "respiration" 1) the act of breathing in and out which is actually medically called "ventilation", and 2) cellular respiration that occurs within the cell and produces energy.
