Read the given passages and answer the question that follow:
Penguins are one of the most fascinating birds on the planet! Penguins can’t fly, but they’re amazing swimmers. They like to live in cold places and are endemic to Antarctica. Even though they are acclimatized to the cold, some penguins also live in warmer climates, like Australia, Africa, and the
Galapagos Islands. The largest living species of penguin is the emperor penguin. The smallest is the little blue penguin, also known as the fairy penguin. One of the most amazing things about penguins is how they waddle! Their short legs make them wobble from side to side, which is both cute and funny to watch. But when they are inside the water, they are not clumsy at all. They are flying.
They are highly adapted to life in the ocean, having countershaded dark and white plumage and flippers for swimming. Penguins eat fish, squid, shrimp, small shrimp-like creatures called krill, and other forms of sea life, which they catch with their bills and swallow whole while swimming.
They catch their food underwater, diving deep and swimming fast with their strong flippers. A penguin has a spiny tongue and powerful jaws to grip their slippery prey.
They spend half of their lives on land and half in the sea. Penguins are great parents, and they are known to be monogamous and stay with one partner for a breeding season. The mother and father penguin both take turns incubating their egg as well as hunting for food. The father especially, does something really cool. He stands and protects the egg from the elements by balancing them on their feet and covering them with feathered skin known as the brood. He takes the egg wherever he goes on the top of his foot. They eat nothing during the babysitting process. When the baby penguin hatches, it’s covered in fluffy feathers, and the parents keep feeding and taking care of it until it’s ready to explore the world on its own.
