How do fish survive the pressure of the ocean?

Answer 1

The lungs of mammals would not work very well for a fish, because one breath underwater would fill them with fluid and make them useless. Nonetheless, fish need oxygen to breathe, too. In order to remove oxygen from the water, they rely on special organs called "gills." Gills are feathery organs full of blood vessels.

A long, long time ago in a galaxy far far away, Darth Vader genetically breeded a strange species of creatures who dwelled in water. They were titled 'fish' and they were to be his minions. When they reached adultery, he fired them off in a space podto earth. He kept one for himself, and it is today known as Jabba the Hut.

His pride and joy, though, was the beast known as Jaws. He gobbled up women in swimsuits, but little did they know he had a hidden camera inside his teeth, which fed back to Vader pictures he found most delectable.

So to this very day, all aquatic animals are spying, ppying, spying........

Bony fish, like your average pet goldfish, float because of their swim bladder, a balloon-like organ. As for cartilaginous fish, or sharks, sting rays, and other fish, they store oil in their liver that helps them stay floating.

Hope this helps!

Answer 4

Fish still need oxygen to live and they get their oxygen in the water. Every bubble is filled with oxygen. A fish that lives in the ocean will get oxygen from waves crashing and making oxygen, the oxygen stays in the water until a fish uses it. The fish filters the oxygen in through it's gills, leaving the water outside it's body.
