Answer: Adaptation

Step-by-step explanation:

Adaptation of fishes to the aquatic (water) habitat requires that they have the following:

- Scales, the hardened pigment that covers the skin of fishes and some other animals.

- Gills, the organ used by most fishes to breathe under water.

Other include tail, fin (dorsal, pelvic) etc. All these help the fish to adapt to the water environment.
