Lions get oxygen in the same way that all mammals do. They inhale through their nose or mouth. Air goes down the trachea into the bronchi and bronchioles of the lungs. Oxygen and carbon dioxide pass through the cell membranes of the alveoli. The lion exhales through its nose or mouth.
Manometers are typically used to measure pressure, so they are not commonly used to directly measure metabolic gas exchange. For recording metabolic gas exchange, methods such as gas analyzers or respiratory gas exchange systems are more commonly used because they can measure specific gas concentrations in exhaled breath.
Well when a male lion meets a female lion and they like each other they perform the reproduction act, therefore impregnating the female, and how ever long it takes a lion to produce offspring, ba-bam the little lion is born. Also known as a cub.
Water is lost from the gas exchange surface of terrestrial organisms because gases must be exchanged with air. Terrestrial organisms have a high water potential, therefore when the gas exchange occurs water will be lost.
An animal's type of gas exchange system is influenced by its environment. Animals in aquatic environments may have gills for efficient gas exchange with water, while terrestrial animals often have lungs to extract oxygen from air. Some animals like insects have a tracheal system for gas exchange that connects to almost every cell in their body. The type of gas exchange system an animal has is adapted to meet the specific oxygen requirements and environmental conditions of its habitat.

Gas Exchange
Working together, the respiratory and circulatory systems perform gas exchange from the blood to the lungs. This exchange occurs at the alveoli.
The organs that involve gas are the lungs. They perform a process known as external respiration, or gas exchange, where they release carbon dioxide and pick up oxygen.
They increase the surface area and hence the rate of reaction is increased... So gas exchange can be much quicker, especially as the bloodstream flows very close to them

Gas exchange is a function of respiration not digestion.

The Nemean lion.
Alveoli is where gas exchange occurs.
Red blood cells are ennucleated. They do not contain genetic information. Their cellular machinery is pared down to perform the specific tasks they are handed (gas exchange).
The exchange surfaces are moist.
