What is the difference between the blue whale and the sperm whale?

The blue whale is the fastest, the sperm whale is not far behind and the right whale is the slowest. The blue whale would be the only one with a well defined fin (a dorsal fin) on it's back. A sperm whale (like all toothed whales and dolphins) has a single blowhole at an angle on the top/front part of its head, so it has a single blow that comes up at an angle. A right whale (like all baleen whales) has a double blowhole on the top of its head. It has a double blow. A blue whale, even though it also has a double blowhole has a high and straight blow. There are several good field guide books that show the difference between the blows of different types of whales.
