Among the fish there are two essentially different habits; those that live near the bottom are called demersal fish, and those that have no connection with the bottom are called pelagic. Demersal fish may look much like pelagic fish or they might have specific physical adaptations to bottom living. In either case the type of bottom sediment, its texture and composition, may be important to demersal fish, who generally feed and lay their eggs on the bottom. 5, record 6, English, - demersal%20fish

Included in the Gadidae are cod, haddock, ling, and whiting.... Some species of demersal fish can change their color and markings drastically to camouflage themselves. This, along with their ability to partially bury themselves in shallow sand, makes them quite inconspicuous on the ocean floor. 5, record 6, English, - demersal%20fish

Boston Brahmins are wealthy Yankee families characterized by a highly discreet and inconspicuous life style. Based in and around Boston, they form an integral part of the historic core of the East Coast establishment. They are associated with the distinctive Boston Brahmin accent, and with Harvard University. The term Brahmin refers to the highest caste in the caste system in India. In the United States it has been applied to the old, upper crust New England families of British Protestant origin that were extremely influential in the development and leadership of arts, culture, science, politics, trade, and academia. 2, record 11, English, - Brahmins
