Deep Sea Fish
Deep Sea Fish
Description:
In this activity, students are shown photos of various weird deep-sea fish as they hear about their general characteristics, including feeding and reproductive habits typical of animals in the deep sea. The students will make a list of important characteristics that they think would be useful to classify fish. A discussion is held about limitations and benefits of traits and adaptations found in deep-sea fish, followed by the students working in small groups to create their own deep-sea fish based upon what they have learned so far. Each group presents their animal to the rest of the class, explaining the function and need for each body part or organ placed on the animal.
