Solution:

Bony fishes (Osteichthyes) are cartilaginous in embryonic stage but in aduly form more or less it is replaced by bones. A swim bladder is present in these fishes, which helps in floating.
Star fish is not a fish. It is an echinoderm, so swim bladder is absent in these.
Carp fish is a freshwater food fish.
