Organs for breathing in animals
Now in CBSE class 5 Animals topic is more widely explained as compared to earlier
class 4. In CBSE class 5 you are going to study types of animals, their food chain,
respiration, etc.
Every animal has unique characteristics and features. They will have distinct ears, eyes,
skin, and bodily structures. Some animals have horns, some long tails, some with a short
bushy tail. For example, a Rabbit has long ears, while we cannot see the ears of a bird-
like a peacock or a parrot. Animals like tigers, leopards, Zebra have specific patterns of
hair on their skin, while bird’s skin is covered with colorful feathers. There are different
types of animals such as herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores.
Herbivores:
The animals which eat only grass, leaves, or plants are called herbivores. The best
examples of herbivores are cows, goats, deer, etc. They have sharp front teeth for biting
and large back teeth for grinding. Small herbivores such as Rabbits, squirrels, and rats
who gnaw seeds and fruits are called Rodants. They have long, sharp front teeth.
Carnivores:
The animals that eat another animal are called carnivores. The best example for
carnivores are Lion, tigers, wolves, hyenas, etc. they have sharp, pointed front teeth for
tearing the flesh of other animals. Flesh-eating birds such as eagles, vultures are known
as birds of prey. They have sharp, hooked beaks and sharp claws.

Organs for breathing in animals
Animals have different body parts for breathing. Animals take the breath from their body
surface, gills, skin, etc.
Body surface – Earthworms breathe through their body surface.
Skin – Frog is an amphibian. They live in both water and land. When they are on land,
they breathe through the lungs, while in underwater they breathe through their moist skin.
Gills – Fishes, crab, and other moist animals that live underwater breathe air dissolved in
water. They breathe with the help of gills, which are full of blood vessels. Fish take in
water through their mouths and this water passes through their gills where oxygen
dissolved in the water is absorbed and goes into the blood. The gills give out carbon
dioxide into the water.
Spiracles – Insects take in air through tiny holes in their body. videos are available on
