Answer:

a) White and black skin in penguin:

The white and black skin is called counter shading. The main purpose is camouflage. When the prey view from top and bottom, sometimes the penguins blend with its surrounding according to the lightning.

The white skin reflects the light whereas the black skin absorbs the light.

Thick layer of fat:

The thickness in the fat helps the birds to warm itself. The fat is best form of internalinsulation.

b) Penguins live in flock:

They always stay together to keep themselves warm and protect themselves from frigid cold winds.

c) Geographical region of penguins:

The penguins are found in the southern hemisphere or Antarctica. There are less human habitation and there are abundant fish to feed in the polar region.

d) Adaptation for polar region:

One should have thick fur and fat, flat or webbed feet, strong beaks to scratch ices, loud voice to call others and flaps to swim.

Answer:

1.Penguins skins is white in colour to camouflage them in environment,they have a thick layer of fat to protect them from extremely cold climate.

2.The reason penguins live in colonies is just because they increase the chances of survival, both adults, and offspring.

Despite living in groups, within each colony penguins remain in pairs, sometimes alone or with their offspring. Penguins are usually monogamous birds, although there are exceptions.

3.Some species live in a warm environment such as the Galapagos Island where the average temperature is 75 degree Fahrenheit. Penguins are found around Australia and New Zealand. Penguins live in the coast of South America. There is no solid reason behind why the penguins live in southern hemisphere are only.

4.Apdaptation that should we

have to enable to live permanently in polar region is , we must have

fur so that we can live in the too cold region. than our feet should

be trapping type so that we may not slip in the ice. our hearing power must be high so that if any animal is coming,we can know.
