The great white shark is really mysterious animal. The great white only one from sharks species who have a warm blood,and great mind.
Several pelagic fish have "warm blood" in a limited sense, tho they are not endothermic in the sense that a mammal is. And yes a shark is not a fish.
A shark is not a fish, I was anticipating your correcting me for seemingly listing them as a fish, my mistake. Fish shape equals not fish. The sharks are less related to a trout than a trout is to a whale.
Shark is the fish.But if you want new system unordinary classifying only by yours,. please kill all ichthyologists in the world.
Suit yourself. I didnt study biology four four years to not even know that a shark isnt a fish. Go on talking nonsense in bad English if you like.
Sharks are an important part of the ecosystem of the world ocean, yes sharks attack humans, but look how the man methodically destroys resources of the world ocean for the man's needs, I would not be surprised if whales and dolphins will attack the man in the ocean.
I don't care what do you mean saying "endothermic species", but what i really concerned that is about stupidity said by you.
"Are sharks considered to be a fish? Sharks are fish. They live in water, and use their gills to filter oxygen from the water. Sharks are a special type of fish known because their body is made out of cartilage instead of bones like other fish. The name, or classification of this type of fish is called "Elasmobranchs." This category also includes Rays, Sawfish, and Skates" http://www.nefsc.noaa.gov/faq/fishfaq8.html
There is a great deal more difference than that. The also speak of a whale "fishery' and of clams as shellFISH. Classification as a fish is ignorant.
It is however....the accepted designation. shark1 /SHärk/ noun plural noun: sharks 1. a long-bodied chiefly marine fish with a cartilaginous skeleton, a prominent dorsal fin, and toothlike scales. Most sharks are predatory, although the largest kinds feed on plankton. 2. a small Southeast Asian freshwater fish with a sharklike tail, popular in aquariums. Shark Fish Sharks are a group of fish characterized by a cartilaginous skeleton, five to seven gill slits on the sides of the head, and pectoral fins that are not fused to the head. Wikipedia
Suit yourself, german silver is silver, and the french horn is french. The silverfish is a fish. And you will find that the hagfish and lamprey are also listed as fish. Hey, its accepted. To a biologist of course, the pop culture naming has little to do with actual relationships. As i said earlier, you are closer related to a trout than a trout is to a shark. But hey, they all get wet swimming about and to the public, if its in the water its a starfish, shell FISH; why not. Great white sharks are cool, They just are not fish, and they are not the only shark, (or fish) that has a degree of endothermy. A person who was actually interested in sharks would know that. Or, it they did not, they would learn it. Silverfish, below:
I never gave that much thought, I just assumed sharks were fish...do you recall beating me up for the "white hawk" story, sounds similar does it not?...misnomers are common... So can you demonstrate how we are closer trout than sharks are...
Simple. Sharks diverged from the bony fish at 400 and some million years ago. The amphibians diverged in what, the late Devonian tens of millions of years later. if i offered scones and tea would that make up for my being mean?
