Best Answer

Yes they are related because they are both in the whale and dolphin group called Cetacea.

***

Sort of. Obviously they are both whales. However beluga whales are part of the Monodontidae (one toothed) family, along with narwhales, while killer whales are part of the Delphinidae (dolphin) family. Killer whales are considered the largest dolphins.

Killer whales (Orcas) and dolphins are related, being both members of the oceanic dolphin family. Both are mammals. The great white shark is not a mammal but a fish, and is in no way related to dolphin or orca.
