The scientific name for the phylum of cartilaginous fishes is Chondricthyes. More specifically, sharks are categorized under subclass Elasmobranchii which is then divided into the subdivisions Selachii (sharks) and Batoidea (skates and rays).
Sharks are cartilaginous fish of the Superorder Selachimorpha.
The scientific name for the stingray is Dasyatis pastinaca, also known as Trygon pastinaca. It is a cartilaginous fish characterized by its flattened body and whip-like tail with a venomous stinger.
no. cartilaginous fishes are sharks and rays.
Jawless fish and cartilaginous fish have cartilaginous skeletons, and bony fish have skeletons made from bone. Cartilaginous fish and bony fish both have jaws, paired appendages, and whole vertebrae, and jawless fish lack jaws, paired appendages, and often are without whole vertebrae. Cartilaginous fish can have scales or be naked, jawless fish are naked, and bony fish have scales. Bony fish have swim bladders, and cartilaginous fish do not. Jawless fish, cartilaginous fish, and bony fish all have fins, gills, and dorsal nerve cords that lead to a distinct brain. They all also have postanal tails and notochords.
Jawless fish are cartilaginous, but they do not have jaws. Class Chondrichthyes, which contains most cartilaginous fish, like sharks, have powerful jaws.
it is the cartilaginous fish.s
Similar to Stingrays, skates are cartilaginous.
Both jawless fish and cartilaginous fish have skeletons made of cartilage.
The scientific name of the domestic shark is Selachimorpha. Sharks have been around for about 420 million years and have a cartilaginous skeleton.
Endothermic is the scientific term for warm blooded. Exothermic is the scientific term for cold blooded. Although the word "fish" is part of the name fish eagle and most fish are exothermic, fish eagles are birds and not, of course, fish. They are called "fish" eagles because fish are their staple diet. All modern birds are endothermic.
Cartilaginous fish have cartilaginous endoskeletons, meaning their skeletons are made from cartilage. Cartilaginous fish can also have placoid scales, or they are naked. Cartilaginous fish have gills, paired appendages, strong jaws, notochords, a dorsal nerve chord that leads to a distinct brain, and lack a swim bladder.
The three classes of fish are (scientific name/common name): Agnatha/Jawless or No Jaw Chondrichthyes (chon-dri-ik-thees)/Cartilaginous (cart-e-la-ga-nis) Osteichthyes (os-t-ik-thees)/Bony Pronunciation in parenthesis
