	11. born August 3, 1808, New York, New York, United States died September 6, 1893, New York City; United States secretary of state (1869–77). He served New York state as lieutenant governor (1847–48), governor (1849–50) and United States senator (1851–57). As secretary of state in the administration of Pres. Ulysses S. Grant, he helped draft the Treaty of Washington (1871), which provided for international arbitration of the dispute with Britain over the Alabama claims; he also obtained an agreement with Spain regarding its seizure of the United States ship Virginius. As a respected member of Grant's cabinet, he worked to counter graft, improper appointments and violations of the civil liberties of African Americans.; Hamilton Fish. Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.
	12. Any of more than 24,000 species of cold-blooded vertebrates found worldwide in fresh and salt water. Living species range from the primitive lampreys and hagfishes through the cartilaginous sharks, skates and rays to the abundant and diverse bony fishes. Species range in length from 0.4 in. (10 mm) to more than 60 ft (20 m). The body is generally tapered at both ends. Most species that inhabit surface or midwater regions are streamlined or are flattened side to side; most bottom dwellers are flattened top to bottom. Tropical species are often brightly coloured. Most species have paired fins and skin covered with either bony or toothlike scales. Fish generally respire through gills. Most bony fishes have a swim bladder, a gas-filled organ used to adjust swimming depth. Most species lay eggs, which may be fertilized externally or internally. Fishes first appeared more than 450 million years ago.

	25. any of a variety of cold-blooded, vertebrate animals found in the fresh and salt waters of the world. Living species range from the primitive, jawless lampreys and hagfishes through the cartilaginous sharks, skates and rays to the abundant and diverse bony fishes. Fishes are enormously varied in shape, size and colour. Their bodies are generally fusiform (tapered to each end) and they can range in length from 10 mm (0.4 inch) to more than 20 m (60 feet). Most fishes that inhabit surface or midwater regions are streamlined or flattened side-to-side, while most bottom-dwellers are flattened top-to-bottom. Tropical species are often brightly coloured and others may have a drab appearance so as to blend in with their surrounding environment. Most fishes have paired fins and their skins are covered with either bony or toothlike (placoid) scales; some have bony plates embedded in the skin or lack scales. Respiration is generally through gills. Most bony fish have a swim bladder, a gas-filled organ used to adjust swimming depth. In a few species the swim bladder has evolved into a lunglike respiratory organ, enabling these fishes to breathe air. Most fish reproduce by laying eggs, which may be fertilized externally or internally. Some species are hermaphroditic, although examples of fishes that are self-fertilizing are rare. A few fishes bear live young. The mortality rate of eggs and hatching is generally very high; only a few individuals reach adulthood out of a batch of hundreds or even millions of eggs. The central nervous system of fishesthe brain and spinal cordcontrols body activity. Most fishes have a well-developed sense of smell; the olfactory or nasal, organ is located on the dorsal surface of the snout. Many fishes have taste buds in their mouth cavities. Most can see well and experiments have shown that many fishes, especially those that swim near the surface, have colour vision. Hearing organs are located within the skull, on either side of the brain. The lateral-line system, consisting of highly innervated fluid-filled canals that run the length of the body, detects vibrations in the water current. Fish first appeared more than 450 million years ago. Since that time they have evolved to fit almost all freshwater and saltwater habitats. any of a variety of cold-blooded vertebrate animals (phylum Chordata) found in the fresh and salt waters of the world. Living species range from the primitive, jawless lampreys and hagfishes through the cartilaginous sharks, skates and rays to the abundant and diverse bony fishes. The term fish is applied to a variety of vertebrates of several evolutionary lines. It describes a life-form rather than a taxonomic group. As members of the phylum Chordata, fish share certain features with other vertebrates. These features are gill slits at some point in the life cycle, a notochord or skeletal supporting rod, a dorsal hollow nerve cord and a tail. Living fishes represent some five classes, which are as distinct from one another as are the four classes of familiar air-breathing animalsamphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. For example, the jawless fishes (Agnatha) are the only fishes that have a suctorial or filter-feeding, mouth, a feature that makes them dependent on an essentially parasitic way of life. They have either no fins or poorly developed ones. Extant examples of the agnathans are the lampreys and the hagfishes. As the name implies, the skeletons of fishes of the class Chondrichthyes (chondr, cartilage and ichthyes, fish) are made entirely of cartilage. Modern fish of this class lack a swim bladder and their scales and teeth are made up of the same placoid material. Sharks, skates and rays are examples of cartilaginous fishes. The bony fishes are by far the largest class. Examples range from the tiny sea horse to the 450-kilogram (1,000-pound) blue marlin, from the flat soles and flounders to the boxy puffers and sunfishes. Unlike those of the cartilaginous fishes, the scales of bony fishes, when present, grow throughout life and are made up of thin, overlapping plates of bone. Bony fishes also have an operculum that covers the gill slits. The study of fishes, the science of ichthyology, is of broad importance. Fishes are of interest to humans for many reasons, the most important being their relationship with and dependence on the environment. A more obvious reason for interest in fishes is their role as a moderate but important part of the world's food supply. This resource, once thought unlimited, is now realized to be finite and in delicate balance with the biological, chemical and physical factors of the aquatic environment. Overfishing, pollution and alteration of the environment are the chief enemies of proper fisheries management, both in fresh waters and in the ocean Another practical reason for studying fishes is their use in disease control. As predators on mosquito larvae, they help curb malaria and other mosquito-borne diseases. Fishes are valuable laboratory animals in many aspects of medical and biological research. For example, the readiness of many fishes to acclimate to captivity has allowed biologists to study behaviour, physiology and even ecology under relatively natural conditions. Fishes have been especially important in the study of animal behaviour, where research on fishes has provided a broad base for the understanding of the more flexible behaviour of the higher vertebrates. There are aesthetic and recreational reasons for an interest in fishes. Millions of people keep live fishes in home aquariums for the simple pleasure of observing the beauty and behaviour of animals otherwise unfamiliar to them. To many, aquarium fishes provide a personal challenge, allowing them to test their ability to keep a small section of the natural environment in their homes. Sportfishing is another way of enjoying the natural environment, also indulged in by millions of people every year. Interest in aquarium fishes and sportfishing support multimillion-dollar industries throughout the world. Stanley H. Weitzman Additional reading General works E.S.
