*This is a unique characteristic of this group.
Explanation:
A peculiar characteristic organ observed in ray-finned fish (as well as in Sarcopterygii, or lobe-finned fish) but not in cartilaginous fish like shark is the swim bladder.
This organ is often described to be a sac containing gas. It helps these set of fish adjust its buoyancy and its position in the water by regulating the concentration of gas present in it.
The swim bladder is formed as a pouch coming off the embryonic digestive tract, and in chondrosteans and holosteans, with a set of teleosts e.g. the eels, it maintains an open pathway to the esophagus. In majority of the bony fish, the swim bladder is totally sealed off, as gas levels in their swim bladder are regulated by producing gas into the bladder via a network of capillaries, the rete mirabile (Latin word for "marvelous net").
The swim bladder is homologous to the lungs of tetrapods. Since they are formed in the same vein. Few fishes that have an open swim bladder employs it as a breathing organ.

Explanation:
Fossil records contain an extensive detail of the evolution of various species on earth which have been preserved in the remains of these organisms or imprints that organisms that existed long ago must have left in sedimentary rocks.
Fossil records basically tell us about the past. They tell us about the species that once existed on earth. They also tell us how long these species existed and how the were related to other species.
This information help us to work out how these organisms lived and the environment where they lived.
