    Explain the respiration system in cockroach.

    Answer:

    A cockroach has small openings on the sides of its body. These openings are called spiracles. Insects have a network or air tubes called tracheae for gas exchange. Oxygen rich air rushes through spiracles into the tracheal tubes, diffuses into the body tissues and reaches every cell of the body. Similarly carbon dioxide from the cells goes into the tracheal tubes and moves out through spiracles. These air tubes or tracheae are found only in insects.
