V. Venn Diagram. Transform the text below into a non-textual using Venn diagram
Sharks and whales are a classic example of two different animals revealing similar traits in the same environment. One of
the similarities of these two marine animals is their habitat. They both live in the vast range of depth in their environment.
They also have the same fin structure. They only have a single tail for propulsion and because they are both large aquatic
animals, they both consume large volume of food, however, sharks hunt for their food. Whales do not have this hunting
tendency. Another difference of sharks to whales is their class. Whales are mammals while sharks are fish but they both
live in the ocean. Also, whales have bones while sharks only have cartilages.
WHALE SHARK
