Respiration in Fishes Objective ? Understand how gaseous exchange takes place in fish ? To outline similarities and differences between gaseous exchange in fish and in mammals How do fishes obtain sufficient O2 effectively? ? Dissolved oxygen in the water is around 5 ml of oxygen per Liter of water ? For land animals there is approximately 40 times more oxygen available at 210 ml of oxygen per liter of air we breathe External Anatomy Structure: Gills ? Gills are covered by the operculum ? Consist of the gill arch and the gill filaments. ? Each gill arch contains a large number of gill filaments ? Gill filaments has thin walls and are richly supplied with blood capillaries. Gill ventilation

AP BIOLOGY NOTES ON ECOLOGY (CHAPTERS 50 ? 55) CHAPTER 50 ? INTRODUCTION TO ECOLOGY AND THE BIOSPHERE YOU MUST KNOW: The role of abiotic factors in the formation of biomes. Features of freshwater and marine biomes Characteristics of the major terrestrial biomes NOTES: WHAT DOES ECOLOGY STUDY? Ecology ? the Study of Interactions Between Organisms and the Environment Organisms all live in complex environment that include: Abiotic components ? The nonliving components of the environment such as water, light, temperature, nutrients, soil. Biotic components ? the living components of the environment such as other organisms as foods, other resources, or predators. These environmental factors limit the geographic range (distribution) and the abundance of species.

Aquaculture issues • escaping of aquatic crops as an invasive species • the relationship between effluents, eutrophication or pollution of water bodies, and changes in the fauna of receiving waters • land use, in particular conversion of sensitive areas such as mangroves and wetlands • water use and water loss from surface water systems • overexploitation of stock over other resource uses, such as fish oil • predator control, such as the killing of birds near aquaculture facilities • genetic alteration of existing stocks from escaped hatchery products • antibiotic and hormone use, which may influence aquatics species near aquaculture facilities b) EPA’s aquaculture threat list Exotic Species Human Bias Habitat Loss and Degradation Overexploitation Aquaculture Pollution
