There must be a constant flow of water over gills. If the water is stopped (or they are taken out of water), the animal will die from too little oxygen. Without water, the gills dry and stick to each other, and gas exchange cannot take place.

Answer:
fish die when taken out from water
Explanation:
As the fish is taken out of water the supply of oxygen to fish is cut as the fish cannot breathe the oxygen present in the atmosphere .
The fish breathe through gills, the water contains some dissolved oxygen in it .The WATER ENTERS THE FISH THROUGH ITS MOUTH and the dissolved oxygen will be taken in and carbon dioxide is given out through gills and thus the fish can breathe in water
As the gills cannot absorb the oxygen present in the atmosphere the fish will die when it is taken out of water
