Cartilaginous fish, such as sharks and rays, are classified as ectothermic, meaning their body temperature is largely influenced by the surrounding water temperature. Their blood typically has a temperature close to that of the water they inhabit, which can vary widely depending on the environment. Unlike bony fish, cartilaginous fish have a unique osmotic regulation system that helps them maintain some internal stability despite external temperature fluctuations.
