Whales move their fins, or flippers, through the coordinated action of muscles that are attached to their skeletal structure. The flippers are shaped to provide lift and stability in the water, allowing for effective steering and maneuvering. Additionally, the whale's large body and powerful tail (fluke) generate propulsion, while the fins assist in balancing and changing direction. This combination of muscular control and hydrodynamic design enables whales to navigate efficiently in the ocean.
