The Blue Whale and Human Skeleton Compared

We did our KIC project on Blue Whale's and Human's skeletons being compared. Our question is how is the Blue Whale's skeleton and the Human skeleton similar. We found out that the Blue Whale and Human skeleton both have a backbone. Also, we found out that they both have a finger, hip, arm, jaw, and rib bones. Also they both have leg bones. We never knew a Blue Whale had leg bones!

Although the Blue Whale's skeleton is much bigger and longer than the Human's, they have many similarities. One example is their bones.

We started our project by thinking of what we should study . We choose Blue Whales and the Human's skeleton being compared. Why? Because we just got done an entire Whale unit! After we choose our subject we went to the library to look for some books on the Blue Whale's and the Human skeleton we found 3 of each,

After we found books from the library we wrote this, our article. Then we did our research. And we found out a whole bunch of facts which you'll see at our presentation if you go.

You know we can't garentee you'll like our presentation but, we really, truly hope you do. For our hands-on-activity you can build a clay whale.

Thank You!
