One of the functions of the external part of a fish is to breathe. Fish breathe through their scales which reside on the outside of their bodies. The fins on the external part of the fish are used to help the fish navigate through the water.

Fish have many of the same body parts that we have; skeleton, muscles, nerves, blood and blood vessels, brain, spinal cord, heart, liver, kidneys, mouth, eyes, etc. In addition to all that we have they have fins, gills, swim bladder, lateral lines (a sense organ), and much different ears. Different fish may also have specialized organs; such as the electric sensing organs of sharks (called ampullae of lorenzini), or the electricity producing organs of fish that produce electrical shocks, like the electric eel's three organs (the main organ, the Hunter's organ and the Sachs organ).
