- There is a strong relationship between body form and function. By observing the external body forms of fishes and inferring the functions of a fish’s body parts, it is possible to make some informed guesses about where a fish might live and how it might behave. Research and compare the external anatomies of three different species of fish. Use this information to predict the behavior of each fish.
- Choose one of the fish descriptions listed in Table 4.20. Each description lists what the fish eats, what eats it, where it lives, and what it does. Make a quick sketch of a fish that fits those characteristics. Use your sketch to draw, paint, sculpt, or build a model of your fish.
