Actually, whales are mammals, so they have lungs. Yes, they DO breathe air, but not water. They just pretty much take a big breath of air, dive, then surface when they need to breathe.
ADDED: Is this even a serious question? I don't know a single person who doesn't know whales are mammals, not fish. Mammals are restricted to breathing atmospheric oxygen and cannot breathe water-bound oxygen.
They don't breathe through their lungs IN the water. They can hold their breath for several minutes at least, and when they need to breathe again, they surface and blow out, then breathe back in, then they go under again. :)
Whales and dolphins are mammals so they breathe air, but since they are sea mammals they breathe air and water
No after it swims for a while water might seep in their blow hole. So the open it and blow out the water and mabe some air.
Dolphins breathe air.
A whale's air from it's blow hole is much like when you breath out your nose (don't try making water come out your nose). It depends on what the whale last ate, but if it was krill, the whale probably has krill breath. Remember the whale is not blowing water from it's blow hole. It is just breathing out its blow hole. When close to the surface, this provides the effect of the water blowing up into the air.
I think you are referring to the water that is blown up into the air as a whale 'blows' air out of it's blow hole--it's not actually the whale's breath. This is called a spout.
You would need to make the whale blow water.
No because they have a blow hole like a whale so they have to come up for air.
depends what that water had
The spray is a mixture of warm moist air expelled from the lungs, with any sea water still surrounding the blow-hole. It is not just water.
They breathe in and exhale air through their blow hole.
releases body fluids and other whale wastes
The Humpback whale is a baleen.
It blows water out of their lungs and takes air in just like a humans mouth/nose. So they can breath.
yes, every whale squirts water out there back. Why? Because, like dolphins, they can also breath out there blow hole(the thing on their back), so they spurt the water out so they breath in air and not water.
Through blow-holes on the top of their heads like all members of the whale family.
