Dolphins do not breathe in water but they breathe air into their lungs.

Explanation:

  • Dolphins are mammals and breathe air into their lungs, just like humans do.
  • They do not have gills so they cannot breathe in water like fish. They breathe through nostrils which is known as a blowhole, placed right on top of their heads.
  • This grants them to breathe by revealing just the top of their heads to the air when they are swimming or resting under the water. After each breath, the blowhole is secured tightly by strong muscles that covers it, so that water cannot enter into the dolphin’s lungs.
