How the model is used in teaching
Bony fish are the largest group of vertebrates, and their body plan shows clear adaptations to life in water. A streamlined body and fins move the fish forward, while the swim bladder, a gas-filled sac above the gut, lets the fish adjust its buoyancy and hold its depth without constant swimming.
Cutting the fish lengthwise on the model exposes the skeletal structure, the brain at the front of the skull, the digestive tract running through the body cavity, the swim bladder and the reproductive organs. Students can then turn the model round to relate these organs to the external form and fins.
- Examine the exterior side and name the fins and body regions.
- Turn to the sectioned side and follow the skeleton from head to tail.
- Locate the brain, digestive tract and swim bladder.
- Identify the reproductive organs and discuss how fish reproduce.
