"Terry catches a ray-finned fish from the ocean and notices that attached to its flank is an equally long, snakelike organism. The attached organism has no external segmentation, no scales, a round mouth surrounded by a s*cker, and two small eyes. Terry concludes it is a hagfish."
Gymnophiona is a group of amphibians characterized by having dermal scales as integumentary element. These amphibians are tetrapods and their scales are comprised of several layers of unmineralized collagenous fibers. The skeleton of the hagfish is made entirely of cartilage, therefore it is very likely that the tooth-like objects of hagfish's are made of cartilage, just like the scales of the tetrapod.

A diving regulator is a pressure regulator that reduces the pressure of gas in the tank and deliver it to the diver so that he/she can breathe easily. It must pass the controlled laboratory testing and must have a second adjustment knob to ensure ease of breathing. Modern regulators are precision made and designed to work under demanding conditions. 1st stage and 2nd stage, diaphragm and piston, exhaust valve and purge button are types of diving regulators.
The law states that matter is conserved. It is not randomly llost or gained, but transformed.
This holds true because when a glass of water is left out over night, the water evaporates. The water doesn't magically disappear. It is just transformed into water vapor.
