How does the size of an animal affect the breathing rate?

Smaller animals have a higher rate of respiration because they have a higher metabolism. Smaller animals have a higher metabolism than larger animals as a rule because the surface area increases as the square of the radius while volume increase 3rd power of the radius which means that smaller animals need to generate more heat because their heat loss is greater for their mass. A higher metabolism requires more oxygen and a higher rate of respiration.

Why animals liver are bigger than human liver?

Not all animals livers are bigger (compared to body weight) than humans. However, some animals' livers are a larger proportion of the body weight because those animals are carnivores (unlike humans which are omnivores). A possible reason for this is that carnivores must be prepared for large, infrequent meals - so their liver needs to be large to deal with a sudden large intake of fat. Other animals, such as horses and cows, have larger livers simply because they are a much larger animal than a human (and in fact their livers are smaller relative to body weight).
