Interesting Pish Physolog.v
The swimbladder of a fish is one
of its most interesting organs, and
perhaps performs a greater variety
of function than <>ny other. It serves
as an organ of respiration in some I
fishes which draw upon the supply of j
oxygen content without bcint asphv |
xiaud. Furthermore, if there is ar. !
excess of carbon dioxide, tile swim- 1
bladder causes the fish automaticallj j
to rise to higher levels of lower car- I
n dicxide content ? thus ser\ mg a- 1
a sort of safety valve. In some species
of fishes the jwlm-blad^er ap
