White sturgeon breathe using gills, which allow them to extract oxygen from water. As water flows over the gills, oxygen is absorbed into the fish's bloodstream while carbon dioxide is expelled. They typically rely on a continuous flow of water, which they achieve by swimming with their mouths open or by actively pumping water over their gills. This method of respiration is common among fish, enabling them to thrive in aquatic environments.
