An exoskeleton (external skeleton) is common in arthropods like insects, spiders, and crustaceans.
Part of the brainstem, the medulla is the connection between the brain and the spinal cord. It controls involuntary actions like breathing, swallowing, and heartbeat.
The respiratory system manages respiration which is the process by which blood cells absorb oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide.
Food is mixed with gastric acid and pepsin in the stomach to help break down protein.
