The factors which set the metabolic potentials of animals - the
physicochemistry of the respiratory medium utilized, the
phylogenetic level of development, the habitat occupied, and the
life-style pursued -, have been the most decisive determinants of
the constructions of the gas exchangers. After molding the most
appropriate respiratory devices and adjusting them in accord with
the individual needs for molecular oxygen, animals occupy different
ecological niches and even share common environments. From the
perspective of respiration, they have very few choices: there are
only two fluid respiratory media and essentially two habitable
spaces - water and air. They must adapt to either and in rarer
cases to both.
