Toothed whale does enamel show. Except for the sperm whale, most toothed whales are smaller than the baleen whales. The teeth differ considerably among the species. They may be numerous, with some dolphins bearing over 100 teeth in their jaws. At the other extreme are the narwhals with their single long tusks and the almost toothless beaked whales with tusk-like teeth only in males.Not all species are believed to use their teeth for feeding. For instance, the sperm whale likely uses its teeth for aggression and showmanship. Breathing involves expelling stale air from their one blowhole, forming an upward, steamy spout, followed
Divided differences "ƒ" on the nodes "x", ..., "x" are used: etc. Divided differences for formula_12 and the first few values of formula_13: To make the recursive process more clear, the divided differences can be put in a tabular form: The divided difference scheme can be put into an upper triangular matrix. Let formula_24. Then it holds formula_44 With the help of a polynomial function formula_45 with formula_46 this can be written as Alternatively, we can allow counting backwards from the start of the sequence by defining formula_48 whenever formula_49 or formula_50. This definition allows formula_51 to be interpreted as formula_52, formula_53
