The mammal's blood requires so much a§ration (ventilation) that the lungs are very large and the respiratory system has become greatly specialized. We no longer find the skin or ali- mentary canal taking any large share in the process; and the lungs and the mechanisms by which they are made to move the gases with which the blood and tissues are concerned become very Ighniwry . tr: Our stupes of muscle phyiidogy should have made clear the fact that tissue-Ufe impUes the comtant consumption of oxygen and discharge of carbtmio anhydride, and that the pro- cesses which give raw to this are going on at a rapid rate; so that the demands of tiie animal for oxygen constantly may be readily understood if one assumes, what can be shown, though less readily than iri the ca«e of muscle, that all the tissues are constantly craving, as it were, for this essential oxygenâwell called "; IM»**IIH'!P'ti»V'»M» â ' ^â :*ie9iA t^'4tW'«UtjM aMtj<^wuji«*itM\i-»iatifcli i"e**» ^ t^'^lMtt'l*"'^ ^.iffyV-'t.'KM^.
