The article and the lecture both discuss the theory behind humpback whales navigation system. The reading claims that the stars assist whales to navigate. The lecturer, however, refutes the author's assessment and contends that stars is highly unlikely to be relative.
The first allegation of the script against which the orator argues is the possibility that the intelligence instinct help humpback whales to navigate. The lecturer refuted this point by stating that intelligence has nothing to do with navigation.He provides an example of other animals like ducks. He asserts that ducks use the stars to navigate inspite of not being intelligent.Thus intelligence is an instinct which independent from navigation.
Secondly, according to the speaker stars do not assist whales to move in straight lines, instead, there are some bio magnetic receptors in the brain which helps whales to move in this direction. Ultimately, These magnetic receptors collect information from the surroundings and assist whale in their movement. Moreover, these receptors help whales to position themselves in relation to their location..
Finally, the lecturer contradicts the fallacy of the passage that whales spy-hop to look for information about their direction . He contends that sharks spy-hop, however,sharks spy-hop not to navigate, but to search for a food.Besides, whale spy-hop during the day, when no stars are in the sky.Thus, sky hopping is a movement which is not related to the instinct of navigation.
