  62. 62Function of: Ampullae of LorenziniA shark's snout is covered in small pores that can detect tiny electrical currents in the water, which are given off by prey.
    (A.k.a Electroreceptors)
  63. 63Function of: OperculumMoves back and forth to move water over the gills, allowing the fish to breathe.
  64. 64Function of: Gill SlitsAllows water to pass out of the body after entering through the mouth.
    Oxygen in the water is absorbed in tiny blood vessels near the gills, which is then carried around the body.
  65. 65Function of: Shark's SpiracleThey are modified gill slits that allow fish to take in oxygenated water. Spiracles help a shark to breathe when it is lying on the sea bottom or even buried right under the sand.
  66. 66Function of: Skate's SpiracleDraw water in, which is then pumped out over the rays gills.
  67. 67Function of: Shark's JawsNot attached to the skull, so sharks are able to quickly shoot jaws forward to catch prey.
  68. 68Function of: Dorsal FinThis keeps a fish steady and upright.
  69. 69Function of: Shark's SkinHelps shark swim faster by reducing water resistance.
    This is because they have denticles (teeth-like scales) that are pointed backwards
  70. 70Function of: Pectoral FinProvide balance and are used to steer.
    Act like an aeroplane wings, as water flows beneath them the shark is lifted up.
  71. 71Function of: Lateral LineVery sensitive to touch and can even feel pressure differences in the water.
  72. 72Function of: Caudal FinUsed for propelling fish forward in the water and for steering and balancing.
  73. 73Function of: Anal FinUsed to stabilize the fish while swimming.
  74. 74Function of: Caudal PeduncleUsed for propelling fish forward
  75. 75—Cycloid ScaleCycloid Scale
  76. 76—Placoid ScalePlacoid Scale
  77. 77—Ganoid ScaleGanoid Scale
