The holes along the side of an insect's abdomen are called spiracles. Spiracles are small openings that allow air to enter the tracheal system, facilitating respiration. Insects use these openings to regulate gas exchange, as they lack lungs and rely on a network of tubes to transport oxygen directly to their tissues.

How do grasshoppers get oxygen?
Small holes on the bottom of the abdomen (spiracles) lead to tracheal tubes inside the insect. These tubes let air in, which has oxygen in it, to travel straight to the grasshoppers cells.
