24) Anaerobic respiration - The metabolic process by which nutrients are broken down in the absence of oxygen to release energy. 25) Alveoli - The tiny air sacs of the where gas exchange occurs with the circulatory system. 26) Trachea - A thin walled tube of the respiratory system with cartilaginous rings that conveys inhaled air from the larynx to the bronchi. 27) Bronchus - Either of the two main branches of the trachea, which delivers air to the from trachea. 28) Haemoglobin - The respiratory pigment present in the red blood cells of vertebrates, which transports oxygen from lungs to the tissues. 29) Blood plasma - The fluid portion of the blood in which the blood cells are normally suspended. 30) Atria - The two upper chambers in the heart, which receive blood from the veins and push it into the ventricles. 31) Ventricles - The two lower chambers of the heart, which receive blood from the atria and pump it into the arteries. 32) Double circulation - A type of circulation in the blood flows through the heart twice, during each cycle of passage through the body.
