prepare a table showing respiratory organs in various groups of animals both non chordates and chordates
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
respiratory organs of nonchordates
Respiratory organs of nonchordates are gills. However, most nonchordates use skin and tracheal systems as respiratory organs. Gills are common for the aquatic annelids, molluscs and arthropods. Usually, the gills are like feathers in shape. They divide the mantle cavity so water enters near the bottom and exits near the top. If the osphradia detect noxious chemicals, the cilia of gills stop beating. Each gill has an incoming blood vessel connected to the hemocoel and an outgoing one to the heart. Some organisms have thin-walled gills through which gases are exchanged between the blood and the environment. Insects have the tracheal system that is covered by a thin layer of cuticle that is permeable to oxygen and carbon dioxide
The Chordata Phylum include mammals, fish, amphibians, reptiles, and birds. Much like the crustaceans, who are apart of the anthropada phylum, the fish share the same respiratory system as they both require gills to breathe. Some amphibians have normal lungs, but they have a slow diffusion rate for the oxygen to enter the bloodstream. Most amphibians have the ability to gain oxygen only through their skin. The rest of the organisms under chordata have normal lungs that operate similarly to human lungs
