Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The two animals which breathe through gills are Octopus, Shark, and Fish.
Detailed explanation-2: -What Animals Use Their Gills to Breathe? Primarily fish, but also crabs and mollusks use their gills to breathe. Larvae such as tadpoles and the larvae of dragonflies, which live in the water at first, also use their gills to breathe.
Detailed explanation-3: -Fish take water into their mouth, passing the gills just behind its head on each side. Dissolved oxygen is absorbed from-and carbon dioxide released to-the water, which is then dispelled. The gills are fairly large, with thousands of small blood vessels, which maximizes the amount of oxygen extracted.
