Whale questions:1) Why do you think that blue whales have shorter dive durations than predicted from both theallometry of body size and the dive durations of similar baleen whales?2) Blue whales registered their maximum heart rate when they were at the surface, supposedlyresting from their strenuous dive and feeding activity. What do you suppose is going on insidetheir bodies to make the heart beat so fast?3) What is an allometrically determined heart rate? Was it accurate for the blue whale? If so,when and why?4) Figure 2 presents relative lung volume data for the various dives. How did they measure lungvolume? Do you think it is an important measurement for this study?
