Question

How do respiration in squirrel takes place

Answer 1

The exchange of gases in the leaves during respiration takes place through stomata. This happens as follows: Oxygen from the air enters into a leaf through stomata and reaches all the cells by the process of diffusion. ... The carbon dioxide produced during diffuses out from the leaf into the air through same stomata

Answer 2

A squirrel’s respiratory system works the same way as a human’s, it’s just smaller and much, much faster. Squirrels breathe through their nose and mouth, the air enters the lungs, where the oxygen enters the bloodstream for circulation throughout the body. The difference is in how fast it all happens. Humans breathe about 16–20 times a minute and have a heart rate of around 80. Squirrels breathe 100–125 times a minute and have a heart rate of around 200.
