No animal lives on the Antarctic continent: it's too cold and there is no food chain.

However, aqua-dynamic birds called penguins breed on Antarctica's beaches. Their homes are in the salt water where they have a food chain.

No animal lives on the continent of Antarctica except a flightless midge.

You are thinking of penguins that breed on Antarctica's beaches. They are not aerodynamic, they are aqua-dynamic -- seabirds who make their homes in salt water.

No birds 'live' in Antarctica. Penguins, which are flightless, do come to the beaches to breed.
