School Story Curriculum

Subject: Science

Concept: Rockets defy gravity. Can some fishes defy gravity?

A bony fish was swimming in the sea when a shark appeared. It was a fierce shark. Also, its teeth were dripping with blood. As a result it looked fiercer to the bony shark. Meanwhile a prehistoric shark appeared on the scene. The prehistoric shark which was huge remained uninterested in the bony fish. As a result of which the bony fish decided to stay suspended in water using the buoyancy powered by its swim bladder – an organ it had. While it was suspended in water – it had cancelled out gravity. In this manner, it enjoyed life due to the absence of predators.
