Can penguins really not fly, or are they just lazy?

Would you also like to fly in a jet fighter?
Yes, that would be a dream of mine. Is it true that you have to be in perfect health for it? And that it costs a lot? If you're not in the Bundeswehr.
How an airplane brakes
Hello maybe a trivial question but I would like to know how a passenger airplane brakes when it lands? Is there a mega-brake on the wheels or does it have something to do with the turbines or how does a plane manage to come to a stop so quickly? Thank you and have a nice…
MH 370 new current?

Has the MH 370 actually been found after 9 years? Are there any updates or new information?
Return flights to Jamaica that are cancelled as planned to satisfy immigration?
Hello, I want to travel to Jamaica and plan to stay there for six months. Due to time constraints, I have to apply for my visa in Jamaica myself, which requires a return flight after three months. I was told about a website/app where I can book a flight that would be canceled shortly before…
Lost headphones on a plane, what to do?
Hi, I lost my headphones on the plane. At least, that's what I suspect. I flew about three weeks ago and it's only now that I realize that I could have lost my headphones there too, since the timing was actually very good. The flight went from Stuttgart to Hamburg. The question I'm asking myself…
Energy conversion from the aircraft
Hello, I urgently need help with my physics homework. It's about the energy conversion of an airplane. So, I need to list Ekin and Epot one after the other, starting from the starting point. But since I don't know how an airplane works and what kind of energy is needed in different situations, I can't…
Too lazy.. just like I was at work 🙂
Then go home:p
Then I would have to fly too 🙂
You can fly as little as a bouquet. The wings are simply and simply not sufficiently large. As a drive under water, however, they are unbeatable.
This entails an adaptation to another medium s, that it then no longer works on the other.
You’re lazy. You can walk, swim and dive as well as people. So why can still fly?
Your question is not serious (hopefully) because they can’t fly and the reasons for it are on the Internet, in a biology book or with the right question on the Internet, for example:
“Why can penguins not fly?”
“The imposing dive arts had their price. The birds probably lost their flying skills. The better the wings of the penguins adapted to the water, the more energy the animals consumed in flying, write the Canadian researcher Kyle Elliot from the University of Manitoba in Canada and his employeesin the magazinePNAS. The increased energy consumption explains why Penguins completely set up flying more than 50 million years ago.”

Only one of the 69,000 answers to my question.
Why could they fly? They are adapted to life in the water and they do not need more!
If you think about which routes they go through the Antarctic, there can be no talk of laziness. The piece from breaking edge of the ice surface to the nest colonies is certainly easy to put back in the flight…
No, they just can’t fly (in the air). It looks different under water. In principle, they fly in water…
The wings have developed into regular floating fins. Penguins have adapted to the water, not the air.
They can’t. They’re good swimmers. With laziness, this is not to be done.
Then explain to me how penguins with their little “stump wings” should get their massive body in the air.
Penguins live in and on the water and use their stump wings as fins.
Can questions really still be dealt with, or is the maximum reached?
This is like the universe. This also continues to expand;)
