Sharks don't really display any "playing" behavior. That being said, some species will correlate in co-operative groups to work towards a common goal such as hunting or protecting. Also, in some species, females will group together to protect their unborn young. Scalloped hammerhead sharks also migrate in groups. For the most part, though, sharks are solitary predators and don't work well in groups and certainly don't "play."
Is a great white shark a fish?
Yes. They are considered marine fish. However there are a certain bi-pedal species who are scoundrels on land.
They breathe through gill slits, and don't have to come up to the surface to breathe air. However, they do have to keep moving so that the water goes through the gills regularly. If they get caught in fishermen's nets, they can drown. However there are some sharks who have adapted to be able to lay on the bottom, so long as there is a current pushing water through their mouths over the gills.

Why does a fish swim faster than jellyfish?
Not all fish swim faster than jellyfish. Seahorses are limited in their swimming capabilities and male angler fish attach themselves to a female and become a parasitic sex organ, never to swim again.
Those fish that can outswim a jellyfish can do so because they have a more efficient propulsion strategy, stronger musculature, a more sensitive sensory system and are more streamlined than a jellyfish.

How do sharks breathe underwater?
Using gills because sharks are fishes and if look closely on animal planet-sharks you will see that there are like cuts on the left or right of their head,well that is gills and sharks uses it to breathe it takes in oxygen and gives out carbon dioxide
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sharks "breathe" by using their gills. Water passes through the mouth and out the gill slits. Oxygen is exchanged through the tissues lining the gills.
Unlike other fish SOME SPECIES of shark cannot pump water through their gills by opening and closing their mouths, they have to keep moving to make the water flow. In this way they are like ram jets. For a shark it is "Swim or die!"
However, OTHER SPECIES of sharks can pump water over their gills when at rest and do not need to keep swimming. These species can be seen sleeping on the seabed around tropical reefs.

A Megalodon can swallow a rhinoceros whole . And or could bite a school bus in TWO. The Megalodon's diet was thought to have consisted mostly of the Whales that were around at that time. Fossilized whale vertebrae and flipper bones have been found with huge bite marks made by teeth that look like the Megalodon's. So pretty hard.
