Answer

Fish has special breathing organ called gills. The gills have numerous thin blood capillaries. Fish takes in water through the mouth and this water passes through the gills. The capillaries absorb the oxygen that is dissolved in the water and release the carbon dioxide in the water. In this way the fish exchange gases.
