41 Smallest Mammal Kittis hog-nosed Bat Bumble size 1.5 grams
42
42 Whales Blue whale 100 feet long, 120 tons –9 story building Loudest animal– 188 dB Sound travels 100s of miles
43

44 Blue Whale Baleen whale Eats krill –Tiny crustaceans –400 pounds/day Heart weighs 1000 pounds –Size of a Volkswagen Endangered species
45
45 Grey Whale

49 Breaching
50
50 Killer Whale 12,000 pounds Eat fish, squid, seals and whales –200 pounds/day Swim 30 mph

51 Humpback Whale
52
52
53
53 Monotremes Lay eggs Incubate 12 days Lick milk from mothers fur Transitional species
54
54 Marsupials Pouched mammals Birth to tiny embryo Embryo attaches to mothers nipple to complete development
55
55 Placental Mammals Placenta nourishes embryo Long gestation period –22 months for elephant Most successful group of mammals
56
56 Placental Mammals Competitive advantage over monotremes and marsupials –Better nutrition from placenta –Less vulnerable to predators More advanced at birth
57
57 Marsupials and Monotremes in Australia Triassic Period –Mammals evolved –Pangea Jurassic Period –Monotremes and marsupials migrated to southern pangea Cretaceous Period –Pangea breaks up
58

59
59 Evolution of Placenta from Amniotic Egg Reptile Chorion –Oxygen from air Amnion –Provides private pond Yolk Sac –Food for embryo Allantois –Store urinary waste Mammal Chorion –Form placenta to get oxygen & food from mothers blood Amnion –Provides private pond Yolk sac –Temporarily make RBCs Allantois –Form umbilical cord
