Is a collection of fish called a host school or fleet?
A collection of fish is called a host.
I'd always heard that a bunch of fish is a school, but perhaps an official collection is called something else. ("School of fish" is one of the clever puns in the movie Nemo. Nemo is not going to be alone, but with others--he's joining the school.)
A baby fish is called a 'fry' when they reach the point they can feed themselves. They are later called 'juveniles' when they have acquired their scales and fins. Once that cycle is complete, they are referred to as 'fingerlings,' which is a reference to their size.
How do fish gills separate oxygen from water?
When we go underwater, we have to fill our lungs with air in order to stay under the water. Whales and dolphins also have lungs and also have to resurface in order to spend any length of time under the water. Fish on the other hand don't have lungs and very rarely rise to the top of the water, so just how do they survive?
As you probably already know, fish have gills. The water around the fish produces a tiny amount of oxygen. In order for the fish to be able to stay under the water he needs to be able to take in oxygen. The fish's gills do just this. They filter the oxygen in the water and this enables the fish to be able to breathe in water.
If you take a fish out of the water, it will die of suffocation. This is because the oxygen in the air has not been filtered through its gills and the fish can't breathe it in properly.
When you find your goldfish lying dead on the top of its bowl, it has probably suffocated from a lack of oxygen because they oxygen has been used up by some other means such as bacteria. So always make sure you clean Jaws' bowl out regularly!
What food does the clown fish eat?
The orange-clown anemonefish are prey for a number of fish such as sharks, stingrays, and other larger bony fishes as well as moray eels. While the eggs are susceptible to predators as well. Humans also prove to be the biggest danger because they are captured and taken from the ocean to be sold or kept.
Defense mechanisms such as camouflage, spines, and poisons help fish escape predators.
Is an angler fish bony or cartilaginous?
They belong to the bony fish category. See the related link.
The ceolacanth lived about 410 million years ago. That's pretty old. Living specimens have been caught in recent times, but, as individuals it seems that they 'only' live for about 80 to 100 years. Even older fish fossils have been found, but it has been difficult to identify these as being truly fish. The oldest fish in captivity is reckoned to be about 80 years old. Also, other fish have been caught in the wild which appear to be about 100 years old. See Related Links below these three ads.
Where do fish like to go on vacation?
Because fish are exothermic (meaning they use heat from outside of their body) they will often become more sluggish or lethargic during winter. Other than that, they will try to keep their same habits. And even pond fish will need a more deeper pond to hibernate.
