Best Answer

Dolphins inhale air via their blowhole. The windpipe, or trachea, leads from the blowhole through the skull in front of the brain, and to the lungs. The lungs are responsible for absorbing the oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide. The amount of time a dolphin can hold its breath depends on the species.
