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!
Why do fish die when taken out of water?
Fishes die when they are taken out of water because just like how we suffocate in water when we drown fishes also suffocate in the air. The reason for this is that the gills i.e. their lungs, are stacked on top of each other which is known as the gill stacks. Without water the gill stacks all stick together preventing oxygen from entering. In addition the gills don't have a large enough surface area to get the amount of oxygen it needs to survive.
Why do fish die when taken out of the water?
