External Nares (Nostrils) Pair of openings on each
side of the head cranial from the eyes
Taken up into the smaller of the two openings and expelled through the larger openings
Water passes a sensory membrane allowing the shark to detect chemicals in water

Spiracles Small openings caudal
behind the eyes Provides oxygenated
blood directly to the eye and brain through a separate blood vessel

Mouth Location: front of the
head Function: to eat; used for
the intake of water that passes through the gills
![Page 6: External Structures of Dog Fish Shark](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56816445550346895dd60b6d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Gill Slits 5 vertical slits Location: in front of the
pectoral fin Function: to take the
oxygen from the water passing over the gills and discharge carbon dioxide

What is the function of the gill slits in this picture?
Gas Exchange!

Lateral Line Location: extends
noticeably from the pectoral fin past the pelvic fin.
Function: senses tiny pressure disturbances in the water
The lateral line is a line of pores that run along each side of the shark that help the shark orient to movement & sound.

Cloaca Location: between the
pelvic fins & claspers Function: Opening for the
sex organs as well as being used for excretory waste

Clasper Only present in males! Location: down the
middle of each pelvic fin Function: Used to
introduce the sperm into the cloaca of the female

What is the name of the structure that is on the side
of the pelvic fins that is only present in males?
Claspers

Fins 5 fins:
1st & 2nd Dorsal Fin – anti-roll stabilizing fins Pectoral Fin – steering fins Pelvic Fin – stabilizing fins Caudal Fin – provides thrust

RostrumPointed snout located at the front of the head

Dorsal Spines Used defensively by the
shark Each has a poison gland
associated with it

What is a characteristic of the lateral lines and what
is a characteristic of dorsal spines?
Lateral Lines: senses tiny pressure disturbances in water
Dorsal Spines: used as a defensive mechanism, each has a poison gland associated with it

Denticles Tooth-like scales on the
surface of the sharks skin Reduce drag and allow
sharks to swim more silently & smoothly.

Ampullae of Lorenzini Small vesicles and pores
that form part of an extensive sensory network system.
Found on the head of the shark
Detect weak magnetic fields produced by other fishes
This enables the shark to locate prey that are buried in the sand or to orient to nearby movement
They may also allow sharks to detect changes in water temperature

Where are the Ampullae of Lorenzini located on the
shark?Head

Nictitating Membrane A membrane that is
present over the eyes that covers & protects the eyes during feeding.
