- Each and every respiration organ is designed by the nature in a specialised way. This all is done in order to maximise its functional capability.
- For e.g.- Nostrils have mucous lining and hair so that it can prevent entry of harmful bacteria in the body.
- Trachea gets divided into bronchi & bronchioles to supply air to each & every part of lungs.
- Lungs have numerous sac like structure called as alveoli which increases the surface area of lungs so that better exchange of gases can take place.

- Alveoli are very thin walled in order to promote better and easier diffusion of gases.
