Describe how fish float in water?

Fish float in water due to their swim bladders, which are gas-filled organs that control their buoyancy. By adjusting the amount of gas inside the swim bladder, fish can control their depth in the water column and maintain their balance. Additionally, the shape and density of a fish's body also contribute to its ability to float and swim efficiently.

Why do dead fish sink first than float on water?

When a fish is alive it swims by moving its fins and tail rapidly, this keeps them from sinking.But as we know when a fish is dead it no longer controls its body and there fore no longer swims, and as was just stated brings to the conclusion that when a fish is dead it no longer floats because it is no longer swimming.Also, a fish doesn't have any air bladders that would keep them afloat as kelp do.After death the air bladders shall allow the dead organism (a fish) to stay afloat until along with the body the air bladders decompose and release the air and let the dead body to sink.But again, fish do not have air bladders so when they die they shall simply sink.


How do fish use their swim bladder to float or sink?

If the bladder is filled with gas it will expand slightly and the fish will gain size but loose some relative weight so it will rise in the water. If the opposite happens the bladder shrinks in size therefore the fish has less size for its relative weight and the fish sinks.Fish's swim bladder affect its overall density by increase the fish's volume, therefor the fish's overall density decreases, it keeps the fish from sinking in water.By adjusting the amount of gas in the swim bladder, a fish can change its buoyancy allowing it to move up and down in the water column. A submarine can pump water into and out of its ballast tanks to achieve the same effect.
