WHICH ARE THE FEATURES OF FISH HELP IN MOVEMENT?

One of the most notable features of fish are their fins - many fish have a dorsal fin and anal fin (near the tail, on the underside of the fish) that provide stability. They may also have pectoral and pelvic (ventral) fins to help with propulsion and steering. They also have a caudal fin, or tail.Fish may also have a lateral line system, which detects movement in the water, and a swim bladder, which the fish uses for buoyancy.
