What do anterior dorsal fins do on bony fish?
it helps the fish to move and breathe
What are the three classes of bony fish?
The three classes of bony fish are Actinopterygii (ray-finned fish), Sarcopterygii (lobe-finned fish), and Dipnoi (lungfish). Ray-finned fish have fins supported by bony rays, lobe-finned fish have fleshy lobed fins, and lungfish are known for their ability to breathe air.
What is the name of the bony fish that's known for its side fins?
When you said bony fish I'm thinking of a coelacanth ~ see related link below to see if this fish fits your question .
How do the number and shape of fins of a bony fish differ from those of shark?
Bony fish typically have a greater number of fins than sharks, including paired pectoral and pelvic fins, a dorsal fin, and an anal fin, which are often more flexible and can be variously shaped. In contrast, sharks possess fewer fins, primarily including a larger dorsal fin, paired pectoral fins, and a caudal fin, which are more rigid and often triangular or crescent-shaped. The fins of bony fish are generally supported by bony rays, while shark fins are made of cartilage. This structural difference contributes to the varying swimming techniques and adaptations of each group.
What does fossil evidence indicate about the order in which these three vertebrates evolved a bony fish with a jaw a jawless fish and a fish with leglike fins?

Why is a goldfish called a ray finned fish?
A goldfish is a ray-finned fish because its fins are supported by bony rays. Ray-finned fishes belong to the class Actinopterygii, characterized by fins made of webs of skin supported by bony spines or rays. This differs from lobe-finned fishes like lungfish or coelacanths, which have fins with a fleshy, lobed appearance.
What is the difference between lobe-finned fish and ray-finned fish?
The main difference between lobe-finned fish and ray-finned fish lies in their fin structure. Lobe-finned fish have fleshy, lobed fins supported by a bony structure, while ray-finned fish have fins supported by bony rays. Additionally, lobe-finned fish are believed to have given rise to tetrapods, including amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals.
What are the structural difference in a bony fish and a frog?
Bony fish have scales, fins, and gills for respiration, while frogs have smooth skin, limbs for locomotion, and lungs for breathing. Bony fish also have a swim bladder to control buoyancy, whereas frogs do not have this adaptation.
What are the paired fins on a fish?
The ones in pairs are: pelvic fins and pectoral fins.
What fish can swim backward?
Basically, any fish with a swim bladder and movable pectoral fins can swim backward (bony, ray-finned fish).
