19 Housekeeping Progress reports go out some time tomorrow, 18 May. You will receive a hard copy. Memorial day weekend, May. No School!

20 Marine Mammals Marine Mammals - Back to the Sea Marine mammals have Flippers instead of legs. Streamlined bodies for swimming. Spongy bones for buoyancy. Layers of body fat (blubber) to provide insulation against low temperatures. They have also developed adaptations to help them see, breathe, & navigate in aquatic environment.

21 Marine Mammals Marine Mammals - Back to the Sea One important difference that distinguishes marine mammals from fish & other fully-developed marine organisms: Dependent on the oxygen in the atmosphere to breathe. To breathe, mammals must surface for air. Other marine mammals (e.g. polar bears, walruses, sea otters, & seals) go ashore to breed & raise their young Returning to the ocean to feed.

22 Marine Mammals Marine Mammals - Back to the Sea Many marine mammals (whales, dolphins, & manatees) never leave the water during their lifetime. Bear & nurse young in the water. When young mature they breed, rest, & feed in the water.

23 Marine Mammals Marine Mammals - Back to the Sea Many share similarities, but have adapted to its own special lifestyle & environment. Those living in cold areas or deep water have developed layers of blubber for insulation. Those living in warm waters have not. Predator or carnivore (polar bears & killer whales) have developed speed, strength, & sharp teeth or claws. Herbivores do not have the same structures as carnivores; instead they have grinding molars to break down plants.

24 Marine Mammals Marine Mammals - Back to the Sea Other Marine Mammals Sea Otters (member of weasel family) Polar Bears (member of bear family) Classification of Marine Mammals Sirenians Pinnipeds Cetaceans Manatees Dugongs Steller s sea cow Fur Seals Sea Lions Walruses True Seals Toothed Whales Baleen Whales Roqual Whales Right Whales Gray Whales Dolphins Porpoises

26 MARINE SCIENCE Friday 18 May 2018

27 Entry Task List at least two characteristics that distinguish marine mammals from other mammals. Flippers instead of legs. Streamlined bodies for swimming. Spongy bones for buoyancy. Layers of body fat (blubber) to provide insulation against low temperatures. What do all marine mammals depend on that make different from fully-developed marine organisms? Breathe air from the atmosphere.

31 Mammals Of The Sea (29:04): Video Synopsis: "Mammals of the Sea" discusses historical intersections between humans & marines mammals, & the impact of the Marine Mammal Protection Act, which was passed by Congress in The film also examines ongoing tensions between those in favor of full protection for marine mammal populations and those concerned about the toll that marine mammals exact on commercial fishing opportunities. Within your ISN you will need to record key information or questions you obtain from the video.
