Do arthropods and mollusks have lungs?

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.
