A Review of the Particularities of the Respiratory System of Birds:
The respiratory system of birds is the most efficient among vertebrates, due to the adaptive anatomical characteristics of the lungs, a markedly thin tissue barrier, the development of air sacs and a unidirectional air flow that makes it possible to maintain a nearly constant volume. In addition to...

The respiratory system of birds is the most efficient among vertebrates, due to the adaptive anatomical characteristics of the lungs, a markedly thin tissue barrier, the development of air sacs and a unidirectional air flow that makes it possible to maintain a nearly constant volume.

The acid-base balance is based on the ratio between carbonic acid (H2CO3) and ion bicarbonate (HCO3-), by means of which the respiratory system is constantly complemented by the kidneys in their blood pH regulatory function. Any change in this ratio causes respiratory acidosis and metabolic alkalosis, according to its source.
