Best Answer

The dolphins (whales and porpoises, etc) are aquatic mammals. As mammals they need to come to the surface and breath air into and out of their internal lungs. They can only stay underwater for a period of time, depending on the species. Fish, on the other hand, are not mammals and breath by passing water over their gills, extracting oxygen, and they have no need to come to the surface to breath.

What are the animal's adaptations to its environments?

Well that depends what animal it is. Adaptations come in many froms. For example a camel's adaptation to the desert is its hump on its back to store water, so it can go without drink for many days. A dolphin's adaptation to hold its breath for a long period of time (up to 20 min average i'd say) would be another one. please b more specific next time!
