=Dolphins=

My Question:
Why do dolphins have very smart brains?(Just like human?).

My Smaller Questions:
Why are dolphins so smart? Why do dolphins have smart brains just like human? How can dolphins know to help people?

My Note-Taking:
- Demonstrate skills and awarness previously thought to present only in the humans - Brains are four to five times larger for their body size - Compared to another animal of similar size, according to lori Marino - If we use relative brian size,as metric, of intelligence then conclude dolphins are second to modern humans of emtinal information - The part of the brain involved in higher order thinking and processing - Dolphins that do survive are hoisted from the water, often bu their tail flukes And transported to the human run parks and other facilities - Dolphins large brains is taken up with echolocation and handing acoustical information processes at which the excel - Dolphins tend to rank at about the level of elephants in "intelligence" tests haven't shown any unusual talent at problem solving - The voice of the dolphin could communicate about abstract ideas - Dolphins weren't particulary interested in abstractions such as geometic pattern or artifical sounds - They were excited about touching the screen if it result in videos - Dolphins has the biggest brain in the mammals - They are so smart that should be called" non-human people" - Scientists found out that dolphins can talk - Some humans can't even do what dolphins do - Dolphins brains are second in mass only in humans - Dolphins brains share a lot of common traits - Dolphins can reconize themselves in mirrors and inspect different parts of their bodies - Evolve for 50 millions years when they were terrestrail (?) animals - A 120 kilos dlophin has 1.7kilos of brains and a human brain has 1.4 kilos - The dolphin brain is not only big, but complex too - The way they are swimming is made on any direction and are using big speed - Dolphins haunt in groups and spend time together very much

My Research Journal:
Today I didn't do any research, because I didn't had anytime to do it. i had lots of homework to do. And my internet wasn't working. That made me very sad. But when my internet was working, I saw some good websites.It gaved me lots of informations. I really likes the website. It has picures that make me really want to read abouut it. It have pictures about dolphins.And the picuture looks real ! P.S: I really like the website! And that's for today. Well, today I got my internet working, and I researched about dolphins. I found some good information about it, but I didn't found many because the website doesn't have many information but the information is good last time I didn't finish researching so I went to find a good website and keep finding that why are dolphins smart I found many informations this time, it told me informations that I can understand I didn't do much research on today some information I didn't understand so I wrote some informations that are important and information that I do understand. I am already done my research and I am still working on my glog I researched many about dolphins! I think i have enough information to finish my glog.

 Dolphins can demostrate skills and awarness previously thought to present only in humans. Dolphins has the biggest brains in mammals. Dolphins brains are four to five times larger for their body size. If we use relative brainsize, as metricof intelligence then conclude dolphins are second to modern humans of emotinal information. The part of dophins brain involved in higher order thinking and processing. Dolphins that do survive are hoisted from the water, oftten by their tail flukes, and transported to the human run parks and other facilities. Dolphin's large brains is taken up with echolocation and handing acoustical information processing at which they excel. Dolphins tend to rank at about the level of elephants in " intelligence" tests haven't shown anu unusual talent at problem solving. The voice of the dolphin is very special. The voice in the air is like that of the human. Dolphins could communicate about abstract ideas. Dolphins weren't particulary interested in abstractions, such as geometic patterns or artifical sounds. They were excited about touching the screen if it result in videos. Dolphins are interested in many things. Some peope say that dolphins are so smart that they should be called" non-human people". Scientists found out out that dolphins can talk. And some humans can't even do what dolphins do. Dolphins brains are second in mass only in humans. Dolphin's brains share alot of common traits. Most of the dolphins can reconize themselves in mirrors and inspect different parts of their bodies. Dolphins envolve for 50million years when they were terrestrail animals. A 120 kilos dolphins has 1.7 kilos of brains and human has 1.4 kilos. That's 7 kilos bigger than a human brain. The dolphins brains are not only big, but complex too. The way that they are swimming is made on any directions and are using big speed. Dolphins haunt in groups. Thankyou for reading it!
