Animals have different body parts for breathing. Animals take the breath from their body surface, gills, skin, etc.

Spiracles – Insects take in air through tiny holes in their body. videos are available on this topic.

An animal or person that eats a variety of food of both plants and animals is called as omnivores. Best examples of omnivores are pigs, rats, chickens, crows, humans, 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.
