Do mammals undergo respiration?
Yes, mammals undergo respiration, which is the process of exchanging gases between their bodies and the environment. They primarily use lungs to take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide. This process is essential for cellular metabolism and energy production. Mammalian respiration can be categorized into two types: external respiration (gas exchange in the lungs) and internal respiration (gas exchange at the cellular level).
What do animals do with the carbon dioxide produced in their cells during cellular respiration?
During cellular respiration, animals produce carbon dioxide as a byproduct. This carbon dioxide is transported through the bloodstream to the lungs, where it is exhaled out of the body during the process of breathing. In the lungs, the carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the alveoli and is then expelled from the body when we exhale. This exchange of gases helps maintain the balance of carbon dioxide levels in the body.
How is oxygen used by plants and animal do the expel the oxygen or is it intakes in by both?
Both plants and animals need to take in oxygen for their cells to respire. Respiration in plants and animals is where their cells break down simple molecules like glucose (C6H12O6) and use the energy from this process for other things - like assembling other molecules (e.g. proteins) or moving molecules around (active transport).The simple equation for respiration is C6H12O6 + 3O2 → 6H2O + 6CO2. This shows that plant and animals take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide.But (green) plants photosynthesise as well. This allows them to store energy from light in the chemical bonds in sugars. This energy is released when the sugar is broken down ('catabolised') as part of respiration. The simple equation for photosynthesis is 6H2O + 6CO2 → C6H12O6 + 3O2. When photosynthesising (i.e. during the day, when they can use the daylight), plants also release oxygen.Also, in the air we expel from our lungs isn't completely empty of oxygen either - although there is a little less oxygen and a little more carbon dioxide in it than when we breathed in. This is why mouth-to-mouth resuscitation works - there is still a lot of oxygen in the air we breathe out.
What type of respiration takes place only in the lungs?
Pulmonary respiration takes place only in the lungs. It is a process in which oxygen is taken in and carbon dioxide is expelled from the body. During pulmonary respiration, the exchange of gases occurs between the alveoli in the lungs and the capillaries surrounding them.
Where do animals get oxygen for cell respiration?
Animals get oxygen for cell respiration from the air through a process called breathing. Oxygen is inhaled into the lungs where it enters the bloodstream and is carried to the cells throughout the body.
What are the main organs in the respiration system?
The lungs are the organs involved in respiration. The lungs take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide.
Which organ do you breathe out of when you need extra air?
You breathe out through your lungs when you need to expel excess air. The lungs help remove carbon dioxide, a waste product produced by cells during respiration, from the body when you exhale.
What organs are used in animals and fish for respiration?
Animals = lungs Fish = gills
What is Animal Respiration?
It is how animals respire, or breathe. We humans respire with lungs. Not all animals have lungs. For example, fish have gills, which they use to respire. Frogs breathe through their skin. All mammals (animals with hair) have lungs though, so they breathe like we do.

Does the anatomy and physiology of animals lungs the same?
yes their lungs are the same and so is their respiration system. but plants are different. -jenny
Do gorillas have lungs?
A gorilla uses its nose, lungs and other organs for respiration.
How does respiration take place infarm animals?
Respiration means the action of breathing. It takes place no differently in farm animals as in other mammals - using internal lungs.
Where does oxygen diffuse into the blood during the process of respiration?
Oxygen diffuses into the blood from the air sacs in the lungs during the process of respiration.
What is the importans of respiration in animals?
'What is the importance of respiration in animals?' Respiration is the in and exhaling of gasses through the lungs. Oxygen is inhaled and carbon dioxide is exhaled. Oxygen is necessary for cell life, carbon dioxide is secreted by the cells and then exhaled by the lungs and nostrils as it is toxic to the body. (It has the same importance as in humans)
