Verified answer
There are three major types of respiratory system -
[tex]\rightarrow[/tex]Gills -
The great majority of bony fish species have five pairs of gills, although a few have lost some over the course of evolution.
[tex]\rightarrow[/tex]Untegumentary exchange areas -
It distinguishes, separates, and protects the organism from its surroundings. Small-bodied invertebrates of aquatic or continually moist habitats respire using the outer layer (integument). This gas exchange system, where gases simply diffuse into and out of the interstitial fluid, is called integumentary exchange.
[tex]\rightarrow[/tex]Lungs -
The lungs are a pair of spongy, air-filled organs located on either side of the chest (thorax). The trachea (windpipe) conducts inhaled air into the lungs through its tubular branches, called bronchi. The bronchi then divide into smaller and smaller branches (bronchioles), finally becoming microscopic.
