Fishes have adapted to their environment through the evolution of gills, swim bladders, fins, tail, and flippers. Gills allow fish to absorb oxygen from the water, swim bladders allow fish to maintain an appropriate level of buoyancy, fins allow the fish to move through the water, the tail helps the fish change it's direction in the water and the pair of flippers to keep it's balance in the water.
