Question

Explain mechanism of movement in birds.

Answer 1

Answer:

Birds fly by flapping their wings, steering mainly with their tails. Compared to the parts of an airplane, a bird's wing acts as both wing and propeller. The basal part of the wing supplies most of the supporting surface, the wing tip most of the propelling force.

Answer:

Lift force is produced by the action of air flow on the wing, which is an airfoil. The airfoil is shaped such that the air provides a net upward force on the wing, while the movement of air is directed downward. ... The streamlining of bird's body and wings reduces these forces.
