Answer:

Whales are warm blooded marine mammals that can tolerate cold water temperatures. Whales use blubber as an insulation layer to help maintain the energy and warmth when they dive to cool depths or travel to cold waters such as in Alaska. The blubber layer is a thick (6 inches) layer of fat that is found under the skin.
