The tracheal system of insects.

Description
As shown in this house fly, air enters holes called spiracles. Oxygen diffuses directly from the fluid-filled tracheole tips to cells that come into contact with the tips. The circulatory system plays no role in gas exchange. The micrograph illustrates a few branching tracheoles.
