Most swimming lanes use a string of flags above the pool at a set distance from each end of the pool. The swimmers see the flags, and begin counting the strokes, having trained to begin their turn after a particular number of them.

Which stroke in swimming does not use a flip turn?

When swmming, you DO use a flip turn only on freestyle and backstroke. You do NOT use a flip turn while swimming breaststroke and butterfly. You do NOT use a flipturn while doing a fly to back turn, or a breast to free turn. Some people use a back to breast backwards flip on the wall, but you don't have to, some think it's faster, others don't. It all depends on your technique and how advanced you are as a swimmer.

Can penguins walk backwards?

no, they never.They are too top heavy and their feet are too small to support their weight while walking backwards. To walk backwards, feet need to lift off the ground, and penguins do not take long steps. Also, they are unable to turn so they wouldn't be able to see where they are going, and would trip and fall.
