All fish have swim bladders. The bladder is what enables them to maintain buoyancy in the water. Without it, they would have to constantly swim up, much like birds have to fly up in the air. It is too much work to constantly swim up, so using a swim bladder, fish do not have to exert as much effort, and preserve energy.
No, besides the cartilaginous structure, the absence of a swim bladder is what set them apart from other fish such as ray-finned bony fish (Actinopteryngii) and Lobe-finned bony fish (sarcopterygii).
They do not have a swim bladder, and have to move contently to maintain a glide path through the water.
No they do not. Fish like Rays and Sharks (as well as other Lobe Finned Fish) do not have swim bladders.
Nope sharks don't have swim bladders but bony fishes do...
No, humans do not have a swim bladder.

A swim bladder.
Going UpSwim bladders are located in the center of a fish's body in order to help the fish's balance and swimming ability. According to the book "Goldfish", some fancy goldfish like the lionhead are poor swimmers because their swim bladder is located too far forward. When the fish wants to go up, a pneumatic duct opens to let in oxygen to swell the bladder up like a little balloon. By gulping, the fish can help fill up the bladder. Some fish, like the rudd, have two swim bladders.Going DownWhen the fish wants to swim lower, they deflate their swim bladders. The gas is absorbed into their gas glands, which are located on either side of the swim bladder. The fish's body can also use the gas glands to help inflate the swim bladder. Fish can also expel excess gas from their mouths in something similar to a belch. Also, if fish are caught in oxygen-poor water, they can use some of the oxygen in the gas glands or swim bladder to help them breathe. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, some of fish species like sharks use oil instead of gas to inflate or deflate an area in the liver, since oil is lighter than water.Going the Wrong WayIf a fish is swimming sideways, is unable to rise to the surface or is clearly having trouble swimming, chances are it is due to swim bladder disorder. If a fish is constipated, this could press the digestive organs against the swim bladder, not allowing it to inflate properly. According to HealthyBetta.com, a fish that has swim a bladder disorder should go on a fast for a day and not be fed so much in the future. Also, splitting the feedings to two or three a day is better on the swim bladder than one large feed per day.
a swim bladder is an organ inside a fish that fills or releases air to let the fish stay bouyant at a certain depth without exerting constant energy.
The frog's urinary bladder is located in the lowest part of the body cavity.
The bladder.
-Fins, gills, tale, swim bladder.
no,they do not need a swim bladder as they do not swim...
A swim bladder is found on the side of the fish.
swim bladder is what helps the fish stay afloat without the swim bladder a fish would simply sink duhhh
they have an organ called a swim bladder. It is filled with gas and it keeps them afloat.
That would be the swim bladder.
it helps to swim
To urinate, if you mean the urinary bladder. If you mean the swim bladder, it is to be able to change its depth in the water. It has a way to vent air from the gills to the swim bladder, and from the swim bladder to the digestive tract. So the fish would inflate the bladder to be able to rise and deflate the bladder to go lower.
The swim bladder makes your fish sink so it isn't floating to the top of the tank.If your fish is floating then it might be a swim bladder problem.Or your fish is dying.
The swim time course of the swim bladder response raises a problem. If a fish can not instantly adjust its swim bladder volume its buoyancy is unstable. As the fish rises in the water the pressure of the swim bladder decreases!
