Body parts of a whale.

Every whale has a blow hole.

This whale has baleen plates.

This dolphin has teeth.
Whales  are great built for living in water. They have strong flippers and a powerful fluke,  they can even leap out of water with full body in air. Imagine a person leap out of water.

Whales have blubber instead of fur, which helps keep them warm in the arctic.  They have a dorsal fin  on their back so they won't tip over. They breath through their nostrils called blow holes on the top of their  head.

Whales  are divided in to two groups, one is toothed whales other is baleen whales. Toothed whales have teeth and baleen whales  have baleen plates.
