spiracles
Insects have openings called spiracles along their abdomens that allow them to take in oxygen. These spiracles lead to a network of tubes called tracheae, which deliver oxygen directly to the insect's cells. This respiratory system is adapted for the efficient exchange of gases in insects.

spiracles
Insects use spiracles as openings in their exoskeleton to allow air to enter and exit their bodies for respiration. This is where oxygen is taken in and carbon dioxide is released during the breathing process.
A campodeid is a member of the Campodeidae, a group of six-legged, eyeless insects with segmented abdomens.
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.
An example of an organism with spiracles is an insect, such as a grasshopper or a butterfly. Spiracles are openings on the surface of the exoskeleton that allow insects to breathe by facilitating the exchange of gases between the environment and their internal respiratory system.
Yes, insects have abdomens. The abdomen is the third and largest section of an insect's body, located behind the head and thorax. It contains vital organs such as the digestive system, reproductive organs, and parts of the respiratory system.
The openings to the nostrils are call the naries. The singular is a naris.
The head and the thorax of insects are the two body parts that are smaller than the much larger abdomens that accommodate internal structures necessary for the equivalents of breathing, digesting and reproducing. The head, as the first part, contains the components necessary for eating and sensing. The thorax, as the second part, is compared to an engine or motor because of its support to legs and wings.
Like all insects, mosquitoes do not have lungs but instead have small holes in their abdomens called spiracles. Oxygen enters through these.
The two breathing openings in the nose are "nostrils."
