A154 Fish
Fish are cold-blooded animals that live in water. They have a
streamlined body design and are covered with scales that reduce
friction. Most are excellent swimmers. There are over 27,000
species, making them the most diverse vertebrates on Earth. This
poster shows the three major clades. The jawless fish, the
cartilaginous fish, and the bony fish. The latter dominates the
poster, as all the orders / clades are explored. |
