How does the isthmus help the gills function?

The isthmus in fish connects the gill arches and helps facilitate the flow of water over the gills, enhancing respiratory efficiency. It provides structural support and allows for the proper alignment of gill filaments, maximizing the surface area available for gas exchange. This optimal arrangement increases oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide removal, essential for the fish's survival. Additionally, the isthmus aids in the coordination of gill movements during respiration.
