Please read my essay on Hammerhead Shark!
Hammerhead Shark will blow your mind! Their colors are gray, brown, and white. They breathe with the five gills on each side of them. This Hammerhead shark, a cold blooded animal, lives in topical and sub-tropical waters worldwide. Most travel amongst large groups of there own species called Sphyrnidae. The Scientific Latin name for a hammerhead shark is Rhincodon Typus.
Most sharks have 8 fins. Sharks can only drift away from objects directly in front of them because their fins do not allow them to move in the tail- first direction. The tail provides thrust, making speed and acceleration dependent on tail shape. The parts of the tail are Petric fin, Clasper (males), Anal fin, Caudal keel, Caudal fin, Precaudal pit, and Second dorsal fin. Varying tail shapes have evolved in sharks adapted for different environments.
Shark teeth are embedded in the gums rather than directly affixed to the jaw, and are constantly replaced throughout life. The rate of tooth replacement varies from once every 8- 10 days to several months.
