My Organism Physiology Paper As of today, there are so many organisms throughout this world that has survive the adapting to ever-changing environments.

It is very important for a living organism to adapt to the world and the changing around them, therefore the organism can be able to survive. The organism that chose to do were the dolphins.

For example, other fish lay their eggs and the dolphins lives real births. Dolphins are warm blooded mammal that breastfeed the babies and they even had hair at some time of their lives. Dolphins can save energy by swimming beside ships that is also called bow-riding and be inherent in a group sets of five to hundreds of years. Scientists also thinks that dolphins developed echolocation to locate their kills and frequently hunt together by encircling a school of dolphins. It is also rumored that dolphins originated from the Mesonychids, a creature which existed 55 million years ago, but however on the contrary, the dolphin’s skeletal construction is like a human hand, completed with a ball and socket joint. Scientists also thinks that dolphins developed from native ancestors depending on DNA, molecular, and genetic …show more content…
While other animals use their legs to keep down other mammals, dolphin has to learn how to capture the food with the other dolphins which is also called a “food ball” surrounds the other fish to make a circle to enable them to catch the fish. I also learned by looking at the diagram, the main teeth of a dolphin has to adapt too. When a sharp teeth was compared to a dolphins teeth, the dolphin’s teeth were smaller with a cone shaped teeth.

Dolphins cannot chew their food, but instead the crushing and grinding of the mammal goes to the first or forefront abdomen, the huge majority of digestion is in the primary or second abdomen chamber and the final part of the abdomen goes to their digestion before the materials emptying inside the abdominal area.
