How Does a Fish Swim So Fast?

Fish can swim really fast because of their special body shape and fins. Imagine wearing a swimsuit that helps you move through water with less resistance, that's like what fish have! They also use their tails to push themselves forward, kind of like a rocket engine. ## The Magic of Fins Fish have fins, flexible parts on their bodies, that help them steer and speed up. When they flap their tails back and forth, it creates a strong push in the water, making them zoom ahead!
