Roundworms facilitate respiration through their body surface, where gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged with the environment. They do not possess specialized respiratory organs like lungs or gills. Oxygen from the environment diffuses through their body surface into their body, while carbon dioxide produced during cellular respiration diffuses out.
