TPO-49 - Integrated Writing Task Like many creatures, humpback whales migrate long distances for feeding and mating purposes. How animals manage to migrate long distances is often puzzling. In the case of humpback whales, we may have found the answer: the

The article discusses about humpback whales migrate long distance for feeding and mating purposes by using the stars to navigate and supports by 3 reason. The professor, however, indicates that star navigating has no clear convincing evidence and refutes each of the author's reason.

First, the article suggest that humpback whales are intelligent to use stars to navigate their brain have high degree of complexity that determines intelligence and they have well develop cognitive ability to abstract system of sensory stimuli. The professor, refutes the author's suggestion. He explains that humpback whales has a average intelligence not highly degree intelligence.

Second, the author claims that humpback whales migrate in straight line because whales can maintain movement in straight direction for example, physical landmark to help them stay to provide them external signs in which to maintain direction and rely on stars to provide them direction. However, the professors opposes the author's claims. He states that migrate in straight line has different explanation. He explains that animals send to explore by object that called magnetic field a bio magnetic field is sensitive to animals. He suggest that it is to orient magnetic field not star- navigation.

Third, the author states that humpback exhibit an unusual behavior the behavior called spy hopping in which whales are looking at the stars to provide them information by navigating in the stars. The professors contradict the author's claim about spy hopping. He states that spy hopping used by animals to hunt that during the day no stars could be seen.

That concludes that the professor is not convincing on star navigating that the author's claims.
