In cockroaches, air enters the body through:(a) lungs (b) gills (c) spiracles (d) skin

Academic Biology NCERT Class 10

(c) spiracles

In cockroaches the respiratory system (known as tracheae) consists of a network of the trachea, that open through 10 pairs of small holes called spiracles present on the lateral side of the body.

Air enters the body through these spiracles.

When a person breathes in air, the air enters into his body through an organ A having two holes B in it. The air then passes through pharynx and larynx and enters into a tube C. The tube C divides into two smaller tubes D at its lower end. The two smaller tubes are attached to two respiratory organs E. Each smaller tube divides inside the organs E to form a large number of still smaller tubes called F. The smallest tubes F have air-sacs G at their ends in which gaseous exchange takes place in the body of the person. What are A, B, C, D, E, F and G ?
