Question
Chapter 46.2, Problem 3SB
Summary Introduction
To review:
Tracheal system for gaseous exchange in insects.
Introduction:
The respiratory mode used by the insects through the air conducting tube called trachea. The tracheoles, which are the finest part of the trachea, form the respiratory system of insects that helps them in exchange of gases to all cells of the body.
