Interesting Fish Facts:
Gills
are efficient at extracting
oxygen from water that has 1/20 the
oxygen of air
Lateral line system detects water
currents and vibrations, a sense of
“distant touch”
Adapted to live in medium 800 times
denser than air
Can adjust to the salt and water
balance of their environment
“Fish” refers to one or more
individuals of one species
“Fishes” refers to more than one
species

History of Fish
Descended
from an unknown free-swimming
protochordate (tunicates) ancestor about 550
million years ago
Earliest fish-like vertebrates: Group of
agnathan fishes
Agnathans (Jawless)
Include
extinct ostracoderms and living hagfishes
and lampreys
Hagfishes lack vertebrae
Lampreys have primitive vertebrae
Gnathostomes
(Jawed)
Appear
after Agnathans in fossil record with fully
formed jaws

Evolution of Fishes
The evolution of jaws and the evolution of paired
fins were important developments during the rise
of fishes.
• Jaws with muscles and teeth made it possible
for fish to eat a wider variety of foods.
• Animals with jaws can also defend themselves
by biting.
•Paired fins gave fishes more control of body
movement. - Balance
•Tail fins and powerful muscles gave fishes
greater thrust when swimming.

The Rise of Modern Fishes
Early jawed fishes soon disappeared, but left
behind two major groups that continued to evolve
and still survive today.
One group—the ancestors of modern sharks and
rays—evolved a skeleton made of strong, resilient
cartilage. Chondrichthyes
The other group evolved skeletons made of true
bone. Osteichthyes

heart that pumps blood around the body in a single
loop from the heart to the gills, from the gills to the

• the atrium - received oxygen deprived blood

before heading throughout body thru aorta.

Reproduction
The eggs of fishes are fertilized either externally or
internally, depending on the species.
Fishes whose embryos in the eggs develop and
hatch outside the mother's body are oviparous.
The embryos of oviparous fishes obtain food from
the yolk in the egg.

In viviparous animals, the embryos stay in the

These embryos obtain the substances they need
from the mother's body (not from material in an egg).
Referred to as “Uterine Milk” made by uterus. Some fish will
produce more eggs, simply to feed young. Or feed on siblings.

(Chondrichthyes): Groups of Fishes
Sharks and Their Relatives - Chondrichthyes
The class Chondrichthyes contains sharks, rays, skates,
sawfishes, and chimaeras.
The skeletons of these fishes are built entirely of cartilage.
Many sharks have thousands of teeth arranged in several
rows, new teeth develop internally, and those on the
external rows are shed.
Most species of sharks do not attack people.
Sharks do not have a swim bladder, instead they rely on
their liver which produces oil (less dense).

Some “Electric” Rays produce a high-amp current from electric
organs. Voltage = 50 , Output = 1 kilowatt
