The first prototype was directly modeled after the whale's mouth, but wouldn't work because there was no tension. The second prototype included a second PVC pipe to add tension, but the filter still did not have the strength it needed. The hoop in prototype three helped the yarn retain tension while still being fibrous, flexible, and layered.

Baleen whales need the adaptation to make sure they are eating the right foods. Their teeth act like a filter. Humans need an adaptation like this to filter water, sift through minerals, or create cleaning supplies

The baleen plates are excellent design patterns from brooms, strainers, and filters to use in day-to-day life! The texture and flexibility can help design cleaning supplies

They are toothless animals. Instead of teeth, they have what are called baleen plates. The plates are long and hang from the top of the whales mouth like teeth, but they are flexible like hairs and strong like teeth.

They are the largest animals on earth, but they eat some of the smallest animals in the ocean.
