Whales and dolphins are both marine mammals and share a common ancestry, which results in some similarities in their appearance. However, whales are typically larger and have more streamlined bodies, while dolphins are generally smaller and have a distinct snout or beak. Additionally, dolphins often have a more pronounced dorsal fin and exhibit more playful behavior. Despite these differences, both belong to the cetacean family and share features like a similar body shape and aquatic adaptations.
