Question

4) Which animals have feathers on their body?​

Answer 1

Birds are the only animals that have feathers. Feathers provide a light but tough covering, and keep birds warm in cold conditions. They also help the birds to fly. The outer feathers around a bird's body form a smooth, streamlined surface, helping the bird to cut through air as it flies.

• Birds are the only animals having feathers on their skin.
• Feathers help birds to generate and maintain body heat and save them from extreme weather conditions.
• These feathers also help birds to fly as they are lightweight and cut the air as the bird flies.
• Feathers also keep birds dry in rainy weather.
