Answer:

Well, in a sense they really do fly, only through the water, not through the air. Their wing bones are fused straight, making the wing rigid and powerful like a flipper. Penguins don't really need to fly because they dive deep, and swim so that they can catch their prey. Their bodies have huge fat supplies, heavy muscles, and densely packed feathers. There’s no way they could fly with such short wings and heavy bodies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps:)...if not then sorry for wasting you time and may God bless you:)
