Mammals do not have gills. They rely on other respiratory organs, such as lungs, for breathing.
Whales are mammals, not fish, so they do not have gills for breathing underwater. Instead, they have lungs and need to come to the surface to breathe air.
Mammals with gills have adaptations such as streamlined bodies for efficient swimming, gills for breathing underwater, and a thick layer of blubber for insulation and buoyancy. These adaptations help them survive in aquatic environments by allowing them to breathe, move efficiently, and stay warm in the water.
Lobsters have gills located under their carapace, which extract oxygen from water as it passes over them. The gills are essential for breathing and provide lobsters with the oxygen they need to survive. Lobsters also have a respiratory pigment called hemocyanin in their blood that helps transport oxygen throughout their bodies.
Yes, octopuses have gills that allow them to breathe underwater.
The respiratory system is responsible for exchanging gases, such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, in all organisms. This process occurs through specialized respiratory structures like lungs in mammals, gills in fish, and tracheal systems in insects.

Rabbits, like all mammals, have lungs, not gills. Lungs are the respiratory organs of mammals, including rabbits, and they are adapted for breathing air. Gills, on the other hand, are the respiratory organs of aquatic animals such as fish and some amphibians. Gills are specialized for extracting oxygen from water, whereas lungs are designed for extracting oxygen from the air. Rabbits breathe by inhaling air through their nostrils, which then passes into their lungs, where oxygen is exchanged with carbon dioxide in the blood.
*What ARE fish breathing ORGANS. Your subject is plural, my friend. They are called gills.
Gills.

amphibians breath with the help of both gills and lungs. example frog. frog in its larval stage is called a tadpole and its respiratory organ is gills. in its later stages of life (adult) its respiratory organs changes into lungs
