- Worksheet 2. 2 4 Insect gas exchange - WJEC
Suggest how this ventilates the tracheal system [2] Acting as a pump to draw air in via the thoracic spiracles [1] through the system and forces it out via the abdominal spiracles [1] (c) The graph shows that there are long periods of time when the spiracles are closed Explain why this is important for the insect’s survival [1]

* Apneustic does not mean that the insect has no tracheal system, but rather that the tracheal system does not open externally * Structure of the spiracles - In its simplest form, in the Apterygota, the spiracle is a direct opening from the outside to the tracheae, but generally the visible opening leads into a cavity, the atrium, from which the
- Insect Respiratory System – Structure and functions
The respiratory system of insects is a sophisticated network designed for efficient gaseous exchange This system relies on a series of internal tubes known as tracheae, which permeate the insect’s body, extending to all tissues, including muscle fibers Unlike in vertebrates, where oxygen is transported via blood, the tracheal system allows oxygen to reach its utilization sites directly
- Insect respiration - Amateur Entomologists Society (AES)
In most species the spiracles on the first segment of the thorax are missing The pair on the ninth abdominal segment is also missing Diagram of Part of the Tracheal System of a Cockroach The tracheoles end within the body cells Gases move by diffusion within the tracheal system When the insect is less active the ends of the tracheoles
- RESPIRATORY OR VENTILATORY SYSTEM - Information Technology Solutions
Cross-section diagram showing the air intake through the spiracles and the extensive tubular system referred to as the tracheal system Note that the tracheae service all partitions of the insect and that all insects have expandable areas of the trachea known as air sacs These are important for ventilatory movements and for reducing the specific
- Gas Exchange in Fish Insects | OCR A Level Biology Revision Notes 2023
Gas exchange in fish insects The tracheal system in insects All insects possess a rigid exoskeleton with a waxy coating that is impermeable to gases Spiracles are openings in the exoskeleton of an insect which allow air to flow into the internal system of tubes known as the tracheal system Tracheae (singular trachea) are tubes within the insect respiratory system which lead to narrower
- Respiratory system of insects - Wikipedia
Development of the tracheal system in Drosophila melanogaster An insect's respiratory system is the system with which it introduces respiratory gases to its interior and performs gas exchange Air enters the respiratory systems of insects through a series of external openings called spiracles These external openings, which act as muscular valves in some insects, lead to the internal
- Gas Exchange in Insects (A-level Biology) - Study Mind
Functions of Tracheal System Structures Spiracles – tiny holes able to let air enter the body and prevent water loss They are controlled by specialised muscles to be opened or closed Spiracles are used to pass air to the trachea Trachea – a tube lined with chitin, which branches into smaller tubes known as tracheoles ; Tracheoles – they deliver oxygen to the cells and tissues of the
- What Structures Do Insects Use For Ventilation And Gas Exchange
Insects utilize a complex air-filled tubular respiratory system known as the tracheal system for gas exchange This system comprises tracheae, which are invaginations of cuticular cells, and facilitates the intake of oxygen and expulsion of carbon dioxide During gas exchange, air enters through spiracles into the tracheal system
- The tracheal system and gas exchange The Insects
Some aquatic insects with an open tracheal system carry gas gills with them (e g bubbles of air); these may be temporary or permanent (section 10 3 4) The volume of the tracheal system ranges between 5% and 50% of the body volume depending on species and stage of development The more active the insect, the more extensive is the tracheal system
