* Inhaling: They take in air through their nostrils, which leads to their lungs.
* Exhaling: They push air out of their lungs through their nostrils.
However, they have a few adaptations that help them survive the harsh arctic climate:
* Fur: Their thick fur provides excellent insulation, keeping them warm even in freezing temperatures. This helps them conserve energy and prevents them from losing too much body heat during exhalation.
* Nose: Their large, wet noses help them cool down in warmer temperatures.
* Oxygen Efficiency: Arctic wolves are very efficient at using oxygen, allowing them to survive on less air than other mammals. This is especially important in the winter when oxygen levels can be low.
Key points to remember:
* Arctic wolves breathe using their lungs just like any other mammal.
* Their adaptations help them conserve energy and survive in the cold arctic climate.
