    The diagram on the right shows the horizontal vestibulo-ocular reflex circuitry in bony and cartilaginous fish. "Goldfish" shows the principal three-neuronal vestibulo-ocular reflex linking the horizontal semicircular canal with contralateral abducens (ABD) and ipsilateral MR motoneurons .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_physiology

    Fish physiology. When threatened, the toxic pufferfish fills its extremely elastic stomach with water. [1] Fish physiology is the scientific study of how the component parts of fish function together in the living fish. [2] It can be contrasted with fish anatomy, which is the study of the form or morphology of fishes.

  5. Swim bladder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swim_bladder

    Swim bladder. The swim bladder, gas bladder, fish maw, or air bladder is an internal gas-filled organ that contributes to the ability of many bony fish (but not cartilaginous fish [1]) to control their buoyancy, and thus to stay at their current water depth without having to expend energy in swimming. [2] Also, the dorsal position of the swim ...

  6. Sensory systems in fish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_systems_in_fish

    Vision is an important sensory system for most species of fish. Fish eyes are similar to those of terrestrial vertebrates like birds and mammals, but have a more spherical lens. Their retinas generally have both rod cells and cone cells (for scotopic and photopic vision), and most species have colour vision.

  7. Circulatory system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulatory_system

    The circulatory system is a system of organs that includes the heart, blood vessels, and blood which is circulated throughout the entire body of a human or other vertebrate. [1][2] It includes the cardiovascular system, or vascular system, that consists of the heart and blood vessels (from Greek kardia meaning heart, and from Latin vascula ...

  8. Lateral line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_line

    The lateral line, also called the lateral line organ (LLO), is a system of sensory organs found in fish, used to detect movement, vibration, and pressure gradients in the surrounding water. The sensory ability is achieved via modified epithelial cells, known as hair cells, which respond to displacement caused by motion and transduce these ...

  9. Fish gill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_gill

    Chimaeras differ from other cartilagenous fish, having lost both the spiracle and the fifth gill slit. The remaining slits are covered by an operculum, developed from the septum of the gill arch in front of the first gill. [6] The shared trait of breathing via gills in bony fish and cartilaginous fish is a famous example of symplesiomorphy.
