Penguins do not have skeletons that are identical to humans certain things are different such as bone length and the presence of a tail in the penguin. But certain structures are referred to as homologous. example: the flipper in the penguin and the arm and hand of a human have the same bone structure just different bone lengths.
No, penguins have solid bones like other birds, which helps with their diving abilities and survival in the water. Hollow bones are found in flying birds to reduce weight for easier flight.
Hollow bones, light body, large lungs and compact skeletal system.
Tobi says: Bird's bones are hollow to help them fly,obviously to reduce weight when they fly. Human bones, on the other hand, are not hollow. We need strong bones to do the things we do, eg: walking, skipping, jumping etc...
No, fish do not have hollow bones. Fish have a bony skeletal structure that is made up of solid bones. The solid bones provide support and protection to the fish's body and contribute to their buoyancy control in water.
No, ducks do not have hollow bones. Instead, their bones are solid like in mammals, providing support and structure for their bodies. This solid bone structure helps ducks to maintain buoyancy in water and stability on land.

Yes, puffins fly. They can fly at speeds of up to 55 miles per hour and do so by rapidly beating their wings to achieve lift. They can beat their wings up to 400 beats per minute.
It has indeed been proved that fox do have hollow bones. It has indeed been proved that fox do have hollow bones.
they have hollow bones because they need to be light
hollow bones belongs to chordata phylum
no they do not have hollow bones. this is because they are flightless and god just made them that way♥ ♥
Cheetahs do not have hollow bones. Birds have some hollow bones with criss-crossing segments for strength. This lightens them for flight.
hollow bones are stronger than compact bones
their bones are hollow to make them lighter, and more legible for flight. if they had solid bones they wouldn't be able to fly as fast, high or as maneuverable as they are now. Hope this helped! (:
Yes as birds with hollow bones cannot fly for longer whereas penguins do not have hollow bones and are able to swim in rough tides for ages. Also non-hollow bones are stronger and tougher than hollow bones.
Birds bones are hollow. That is why they can fly, because they are so light because of their hollow bones. x)
Birds have hollow bones to help them fly. Solid bones would add to much weight and make it impossible to fly.
