    Marine biology is the study of saltwater environments. It involves the examination and understanding of various marine organisms, their behavior, habitats, and interactions with their surroundings.

    Mamals with teeth, such as Sharks and Orcas are visious animals.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Mammals with teeth, such as Sharks and Orcas, are indeed vicious animals. This is because their teeth are adapted for hunting and capturing prey. Sharks have rows of sharp, serrated teeth that they use to tear apart their prey, while Orcas have large, powerful teeth that they use to grab and kill their prey. These adaptations make them highly effective predators in their respective marine environments.

      True

      False

    A. True
    Explanation
    Orcas, also known as killer whales, are actually a species of dolphins. Despite their name, they are not whales but the largest members of the dolphin family. They are highly intelligent, social creatures that are known for their distinctive black and white coloration. Orcas are found in oceans all over the world and are known for their powerful hunting abilities and complex social structures. Therefore, the statement "Oracas are actually dolphins" is true.
