Sharks and whales are actually not related to each other.

A shark is a type of fish. They breathe through gills, and do not nurse their pups.

Whales are mammals. They are warm blooded, breathe surface air, and nurse their calves. The animal that is probably the closest relation to the whale would be a dolphin. Certain types of dolphins, such as orcas, are often mistaken for whales.
