Fish are animals that live in water.

Fish have fins that help them to swim. Most fish have slimy skins covered
with scales which are very small and can hardly be seen.
Fish breathe through gills. These look like a comb and lie on each side of the
head. Fish take in water all the time. The water flows in through the mouth,
over the gills, and out through the sides of the head. When a fish takes in
water, it is not drinking but breathing, and the gills absorb oxygen from the
water.
