The deeper a marine mammal has to dive for food, the longer it is going to need to be able to hold its breath to be successful. Humans who have trained can hold their breath underwater for around 20 minutes, but the average person can only hold his or her breath for 1 minute. There are several adaptations that make it possible for marine mammals to stay submerged longer than a land-based mammal.
