A nostril or spiracle in the top of the head of a whale or other cetacean.
A hole in the ice to which whales, seals, etc., come to breathe.
A whale or dolphin's 'nostril' on the top of their head. Baleen whales have two, toothed whales and dolphins only one.
opening to the lungs of a whale, similar to human nostrils.
the nose of the whale located on top of the head
the spiracle of a cetacean located far back on the skull
The nostril (can be one or two) on top of a whale’s head through which it breathes.
the nasal opening(s) of whales.
A nostril opening on the top of the head of cetaceans (whales, porpoises, dolphins).
In cetacean s, the single or paired respiratory opening.
nostril located on the top of the head. During dives the blowhole is sealed by a nasal plug which is retracted by fast-acting muscles upon surfacing for breathing.
a hole for breathing, in the top of the head of whales, dolphins and porpoises.
Nasal opening(s) on the top of the head in cetaceans (1 in odontocetids, 2 in mysticetids).
In cetaceans, the single or paired respiratory opening.
The holes found on the top of the whale's head which allows it to breath. Baleen whales have two blowholes side by side while toothed whales have a single blowhole..
The opening of the nostril(s) of a whale, located on the top of it's head, through which the whale breathes and from which the "spout" is produced.
Nostril(s) on the top of the head.
In biology, a blowhole is the hole at the top of a Cetacean's head through which the animal breathes air. It is homologous with the nostril of other mammals. As whales reach the water surface to breathe, they will forcefully expel air through the blowhole.
