My name is Sarah Mack and I am from Challenger Middle School.
My Answer to Challenger Question # 14:
A view of the bones in a grey whale's flipper looks a lot like a human hand does. But there are only four "fingers" on a whale, whereas humans have five. Whales cannot move individual "fingers" like we can. But then again, if grey whales needed to use their "fingers" idividually, they'd be able to. That's how adaptation works.
