Gas exchange takes place via the spiracles on the grasshopper. This allows oxygen to be transported to all vital parts of the grasshopper via trachea-like structures. Insects have direct oxygen intake and usage, whereas humans require it to be transported via red blood cells. Insects do have "blood" known as hemolymph, however this is mostly a source of sugars and proteins.
