No. They don't have lungs. They only have gills.
It takes in oxygen through air, using lungs. Fish take in oxygen through water, using gills.
Fish gills are the equivalent of human lungs. Our lungs, and the fish's gills, are the part of the body that absorb the oxygen we need and expel the carbon dioxide that we nave to get rid of. The way that this happens is through the blood vessels (arteries carry oxygen-rich blood around the body, while veins carry deoxygenated blood) Humans extract oxygen from the air that they breathe into their lungs, while fish obtain their oxygen from the water that passes through their gills.
All fish have lungs and gills. The gills extract the air from the water.
No; sharks don't have lungs. They have gills, in common with most fish, that extract oxygen from the water around them.

Because it doesn't enter their lungs,it gets converted into oxygen through the gills.
Fish Use Gills Instead of lungs. Gills Help fish to Breath. Fish Use Gills Instead of lungs. Gills Help fish to Breath.
No, they breath through gills.
I'm going to assume the word 'oxygen' was accidently left out of the sentence. While there is oxygen in both air and water, our lungs can only receive oxygen through air, while a fish's gills can only receive it through water.
people have lungs that enable them to breathe air, and fish have gills that enable them to breathe water _____________________________ lungfish have lungs to breathe air if there is a drought. ~metalumbreon
Fish breathe using their gills. Gills are respiratory organs that extract oxygen from the water and release carbon dioxide. Water passes through the fish's mouth and flows over the gills, allowing the fish to absorb oxygen from the water.
All mammals, birds, and reptiles and most adult amphibians breathe through lungs. Most fish do not. Some species of salamander lack lungs and breathe eaither through their skin or through gills. Mos young amphibians are aquatic and breathe through gills. Most fish breath exclusively through gills. Some fish, called lungfish can breath through lungs, bust still primarily use their gills.
