This process requires large volumes of water to pass through absorption surfaces to get enough oxygen into their bodies using their mouths and gills.

Detailed explanation-2: -Fishes do not possess respiratory organs like other animals. These can not get enough oxygen on land as they are aquatic animal. These have as a respiratory organ, which they used to filter oxygen from the water present in ponds or oceans.

Detailed explanation-3: -Fish do not breathe air. They get the oxygen they need from the water they live in. Fish have special filters in the sides of their body called ‘gills’ that act as their ‘lungs’.
