C Correct answer
Explanation

Catfish have an extraordinary number of taste buds - over 100,000 located all over their bodies, particularly on their barbels (whiskers) and fins. This allows them to detect food sources in murky waters where vision is limited. Humans have only about 10,000 taste buds, sharks have very few, and dolphins have even fewer than humans. The catfish's exceptional sense of taste is a key adaptation for their bottom-feeding lifestyle.
