1. Adaptations of Euphotic Fish In the Gulf of Maine

2. Directions You are on an ocean trawl and you haul up the following fish in your net. Fill out the student sheet: Name, date, time, and hypothesis before you proceed from this slide. Use the DMR resources page for Common Salt Water fish to help you (at the end): http://www.maine.gov/dmr/recreational/angl erguide/doyouknowyourcatch/index.htm

3. Open the DMR site (previous page) Click the fish for each slide and read more about it. On a piece of lined paper, describe 5 adaptations of each fish (swimming style, fin shape, tail shape, how they feed, etc) Then answer the questions on the first paper given (that is last). Turn all of this in or finish it for homework. We will dissect the Perch next class.
