Fish, humans, nostrils, organs, water, smell

Fish nostrils, like those of humans, do not open into the back of the mouth and are thus not used for breathing. They lead to smell organs, which are extremely sensitive, allowing fish to sense the presence of food in the water from great distances. More nostrils equal more sniffing!
