Nadadeira Posterior


Explanation:
From reference below:
"Nadadeira Posterior ou Cauda: São duas nadadeiras posteriores que constituem a cauda do Golfinho. São achatadas e horizontais e consistem de tenões e fibras sem ossos. A função destas nadadeiras é servirem de pás para impulsionar o movimento do Golfinho."
