Prawn does not use the trachea as the respiratory organ. They are aquatic animals and have gills for the respiration process.

Insects have a tracheal respiratory system in which oxygen and carbon dioxide travel primarily through air-filled tubes called tracheae. For example, grasshoppers, mosquitoes, cockroaches etc., possess a tracheal respiratory system.

Usually, the tracheal system penetrates the cuticle via closeable valves called spiracles and ends near or within the tissues in tiny tubes called tracheoles.
