Explanation:

Respiration in fish takes with the help of gills. Most fish possess gills on either side of their head. Gills are tissues made up of feathery structures called gill filaments that provide a large surface area for gas exchange. Fish take in oxygen-rich water through their mouths and pump it over their gills.
