There are several methods arthropods use for gas exchange; insects have holes in their segments called spiracles, connected to a trachea and tubules which deliver oxygen directly to tissues without needing to go through a bloodstream; and also remove waste gasses. Arachnids may use a type of simple lung called a book lung, comparable to a book gill in a similar stacked spatial arrangement for some aquatic arthropods. Other marine arthropods use gills for gas exchange, such as crabs and lobsters; crabs can continue to use gills on land so long as they remain moist. The simpler and smaller arthropods are able to perform gas exchange across their entire body surface and need no additional specialized gas exchange structures.
Aquatic arthropods mostly exchange gases through (c) gills; some (like the horseshoe crabs) have book gills. The "book lungs" term usually applies to most arachnids like scorpions and spiders, which are terrestrial; most other terrestrial arthropods exchange gases through special holes in their segments called spiracles, attached to the tracheal tubules/tracheola which connect directly to the tissues.
No for arthropods; yes for some molluscs. The larger aquatic arthropods like lobsters and crabs accomplish gas exchange using gills. Smaller ones like the land-based insects have holes (spiracles) in the exoskeleton and a tube system to facilitate gas exchange necessary for respiration. In this case, unlike mammals which use lungs to oxgenate blood which is pumped to the tissues, the tracheal tubes from the spiracles deliver oxygen directly to the tissues. Aquatic molluscs have gills for gas exchange whereas molluscs adapted to live on land like snails do have a lung.
Terrestrial arthropods have a series of openings called spiracles at the body surface. Spiracles open into tiny air tubes called tracheae, which expand into fine branches that extend into all parts of the arthropod body
no, i dont know what they are, but they are not arthropods
NO. Arthropods do not have a 4 chambered hearts.
Aquatic arthropods typically exchange gases through gills. Gills are structures that are rich in blood vessels and provide a large surface area for gas exchange to occur, allowing the arthropods to extract oxygen from the water and release carbon dioxide.

In the lungs, exchange of gases occurs in the alveoli(sing: alveolus).
During the stage of photosynthesis, the exchange of gases occur in the leaves.
Books lungs are lung like organs found in arthropods. They function much like advanced lungs by exchanging atmospheric gases. Pockets of hemolymph pool in the lungs and are saturated by gases.
Light is necessary for the exchange of gases in plants.æ Light is what instigates photosynthesis and without photosythesis there can be no gas exchange.
the blood vessel which allows gas exchange to occur is the capillaries
Spiracles are small openings found on the sides of the body of insects and some other arthropods that are used for breathing. They allow for the exchange of gases, such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, between the organism and its environment.
The actual exchange of gases occurs in the alveoli
YES
