The reading and the lecture are both about humpback whale which is migrate for feeding and mating purpose. The author of reading believes that humpback whale use stars for navigating. The lecturer cast doubt on claims made by the article. He thinks there is no strong evidence that humpback whale use stars for navigating.
First of all, the author points out that humpback whales are intelligent enough to use stars for navigation. Its mention that their brains have high degree of complexity common determiner of intelligence. This point is challenged by the lecturer. He says there is no connection between intelligence and animal abilities. Furthermore, he argues that some births such as ducks have the ability of using stars for navigations, only average of them have this ability
Secondly, the author contends that humpback whales migrate in straight line. The article notes that many births and terrestrial creature for example use physical landmarks to stay on track as they migrate, humpback whales use stars at night to stay in straight line while migrate over long distance. The lecturer rebuts this argument. He suggests that there is different explanation to navigate in straight line. He elaborates on this by mentioning that animals who travel in straight line send some external forces called earth magnetic, humpback whales have bio magnetized in their bodies which makes them sensitive with earth magnetic and help them to navigate in straight line rather than using stars.
Finally, the author states that humpback whale have unusual behavior called spy-hooping, keeping their head above water and straight up for minute. The article establishes that function of spy-hooping is that whales are providing navigation information by looking up to stars. The lecturer, on the other hand, posits that spy-hooping is no connection with the stars. He puts forth the idea that some sharps are spy-hooping for the purpose of hunting not migrating and the humpback whale are spy-hooping at the day time which stars are not available.
In conclusion, the lecturer effectively casts doubt on all of the claims and theories are present in the reading.
