Insects do have a respiratory system. The using organs called spiracles to introduce oxygen from the atmosphere into their bodies. These spiracles then let oxygen flow into the tracheal system which is a system of tubes that delivers oxygen to the parts of the body where it is needed.
The tubes that connect the bronchi with the alveoli are the bronchioles.
Spiracles form a part of the abdomen region of the grasshopper. They consist of tiny holes that permit air to enter trachea. Spiracles lie along the sides of the abdomen and the thorax. Tubes stem out from the spiracles and carry air to all parts of the body for respiration. The trachea is the respiratory surface of the grasshopper. Since water travels easily along this surface, it is prone to water loss. The respiratory surface is protected thanks to spiracles. Grasshoppers have two thoracic and eight abdominal spiracles. These insects have valves that allow them to close their spiracles, thus reducing water loss. Spiracles are known to possess intricate opening and closing mechanisms that are physiologically helpful to regulate air flow and lessen water loss from the insect
through a system of tubes! (P.S. are you cheating on your HW?)
Volkman's canals
large tracheal tubes which are part of the respiratory system
Spiracles
The air openings on abdominal segments of terrestrial arthropods would be spiracles, which connect to the trachea and tracheoles to directly oxygenate tissues and remove waste gasses. The spiracles are regulated by muscles to open or close to reduce water loss.
By a tracheal system as in insects, with branched air tubes . A pair of spiracles allows air to enter each segment
No, bumblebees [Bombus spp] don't have lungs. Instead, they breathe through a system of air tubes, sacs and holes. The holes are called 'spiracles'. The tubes are called 'trachea'. The air enters the body through the spiracles, is distributed by the trachea and is stored in the sacs.

No, insects do not have lungs, they have a system of small holes in their exoskeleton which allows air entry into a system of narrow tubes from which it can diffuse directly into their living tissues.
Spiracles are the openings on the sides of all insect's.Air rushes through the spiracles to the tracheal tubes and diffuses into the body tissue and reaches every parts of the body
yes, all insects do
No, the only spiracles are on the abdominal segments. Those open up th large tracheal tubes.

Spiracles are holes in butterflies that allow air to pass into their air tubes. The tracheae then circulates the oxygen and the heart circulates the blood.
