They only have one respriatory system and it is similar to humans. They breath oxygen from ther air with their lungs. When they are underwater they simply hold their breath (and can do so for a very long time). They do not breath water with gills like fish.

Can octopuses breathe on land and if so, how do they do it?

Yes, octopuses can breathe on land for a short period of time. They do this by absorbing oxygen through their skin, which is called cutaneous respiration. However, they cannot survive out of water for extended periods as they need water to support their respiratory system.

DO AMPHIBIANS BREATHE IN THE WATER AND ON LAND?

Yes, amphibians can breathe both in water and on land. In water, they typically use their skin and, in some cases, gills to absorb oxygen. On land, they primarily rely on lungs for respiration, though many still retain the ability to absorb oxygen through their moist skin. This dual respiratory system allows them to thrive in both aquatic and terrestrial environments.


What 2 organs make up the frog respiratory system?

The frog respiratory system primarily consists of the lungs and the skin. Frogs breathe through their lungs when on land, while their moist skin allows for cutaneous respiration, enabling them to absorb oxygen directly from the water or the air. This dual method of respiration is crucial for their survival in varying environments.

How did lungfish breathe?

Lungfish breathe using gills when they are in water, and can also utilize a primitive lung to breathe air when out of water. This dual respiratory system allows lungfish to survive in a variety of oxygen concentrations and environments.

What is the breathing organ of tortise?

Tortoises have lungs as their breathing organ, just like most terrestrial vertebrates. They breathe air by expanding and contracting their lungs, allowing oxygen to be taken in and carbon dioxide to be released. This respiratory system enables them to survive on land.
