A. BACKGROUND
Fish are vertebrate organisms that live or their habitat is in water,
either fresh water, brackish water, or sea water (salt water). Fish is one of
the vertebrate organisms that live or their habitat is in water, both fresh
water, brackish water and sea water. One type of freshwater fish is carp
(Cyprinus carpio). Pisces or fish are members of poikilothermic (cold-
blooded) vertebrates that live in water, breathe using gills, the body is
covered with scales and acts using fins. Thus, ichthyology is a science that
examines fish using all aspects of their lives, including morphology,
anatomy, physiology, taxonomy, and how to identify them. Fish are the
most diverse group of vertebrates with more than 27,000 species
worldwide. Taxonomically, fish belong to a paraphyletic group whose
kinship relationship is still debated: usually fish are divided into jawless
fish (class Agnatha, 75 species), cartilaginous fish (class Chondrichthyes,
800 species including sharks and rays), and the rest classified as bony fish
(class Osteichthyes). So it is necessary to practice about fish morphology,
fish body measurement methods, and socialization of fish organ systems
including the integumentary system, skeletal system, muscular system,
respiratory system, digestive system, nervous system, excretory system &
osmoregulation. The implementation is carried out by observing,
observing and comparing the organs or organ systems that are observed in
accordance with theoretical explanations in ichthyology. Fish
identification is carried out according to meristic characteristics, such as
the number of fin rays, the number of porous scales, and the number of
scales on the face of the fin, and morphometric properties, size exclusive
parts based on fish body structure. Morphometric characters that are often
used to measure include total length, regular length, base length, body
height and width, fin height and length.
B. RESEARCH PURPOSE
The objectives of this experiment are as follows:
1) Identify and describe the external structure of the carp (Cyprinus
carpio).
2) identify and describe the structure and function of the organs that
make up the integumentary system, digestive system, respiratory
system, urogenital system, circulatory system, and skeletal system
of the carp (Cyprinus carpio).
C. BENEFIT OF RESEARCH
The benefits of this practicum are:
1) The benefits of this practicum are that students can know, learn, and
understand the anatomical structure of the carp fish (Cyprinus carpio)
directly.
2) Practitioners will know more about the anatomy of carp fish (Cyprinus
carpio) both externally and internally.

LITERATURE REVIEW
A. OBSERVATION RESULT
1. Morphology structure goldfish
A. CONCLUTION
1. As for the outer structure of the goldfish, the eye functions as a tool for
seeing. Fish themselves can detect colors, but have short eyesight. The
nostrils on the fish's head are used as a tool for smelling. The mouth is
used to eat food. The operculum is a bony flap located near the gills as a
tool to cover the gills from the outside. The pectoral fin is used as a
means of movement to change the direction of the fish's journey, while
the pelvic fin functions as a means of stabilizing fish in swimming, as
well as the function of the anal fin.
2. Carp respiratory system – Goldfish breathe oxygen and expel carbon
dioxide, and the organ that is considered the most vital in the
respiratory system of goldfish is the gills, which are organs for taking
oxygen dissolved in water and then carried to the capillaries. The gills
have a cavity under the opercula, there are four gill arches, two arches.
Carp excretory system Remnants or metabolic waste in carp are
removed through organs such as kidneys, bladder and gills. In goldfish,
the kidneys function as a tool to produce urine and produce metabolic
waste. This organ is located at the bottom, has a dark color with a
number of two.
B. SUGGESTION
1) For practitioners, must be more careful in using and must understand
the instructor well before conducting the experiment.
2) For assistants, pay more attention when the practitioner is confused in
the experiment.
3) For the laboratory more attention to laboratory tools and materials
before experiment.
