Adaptations

The sharks upper teeth are long and pointed while its lower teeth are strong and sharp. This allows the shark to eat large chunks of dead animals and whales. Having small fins also means that it uses less energy to move and so they don`t get cold in the freezing water.The Greenland shark has no bones in its spine it has cartilage . Without bones that means that they can move without using so much energy.
