Four of the best-known species are the Emperor, Adelie, Chinstrap and Rockhopper penguins. Penguins walk awkwardly on land. They walk with a clumsy waddle or a hop. To move faster, they slide on their bellies when they go downhill. However, penguins are graceful and move fast in the sea. They use their webbedfeet as rudders to change direction. Their feet are also used as brakes. Most penguins do not eat at all times of the year. When they are breeding, they may go for weeks without feeding. For the Emperor species, they can last for months without eating. Before breeding, penguins feed constantly to build up a reserve of fat.55.

Four of the best-known species are the Emperor, Adelie, Chinstrap and Rockhopper penguins. Penguins walk awkwardly on land. They walk with a clumsy waddle or a hop. To move faster, they slide on their bellies when they go downhill. However, penguins are graceful and move fast in the sea. They use their webbed feet as rudders to change direction. Their feet are also used as brakes. Most penguins do not eat at all times of the year. When they are breeding, they may go for weeks without feeding. For the Emperor species, they can last for months without eating. Before breeding, penguins feed constantly to build up a reserve of fat.55.

Most cheese is made from cow's milk. However, milk from other animals such as sheep, goats, buffalo, camels yaks and reindeer is also used. Hard cheese such as Cheddar and mature soft cheese such as Brie are made by adding rennet to milk. There are hundreds of different cheeses. Most cheese has a high fat content of around 40-50 per cent. Cheese is a good source of protein, calcium, vitamin B complex, vitamin A, O and E. A 100-gram piece of cheese contains the same amount of calcium as a similar quantity of bread and nearly as much as the same amount of milk.

Most cheese is made from cow's milk. However, milk from other animals such as sheep, goats, buffalo, camels yaks and reindeer is also used. Hard cheese such as Cheddar and mature soft cheese such as Brie are made by adding rennet to milk. There are hundreds of different cheeses. Most cheese has a high fat content of around 40-50 per cent. Cheese is a good source of protein, calcium, vitamin B complex, vitamin A, O and E. A 100-gram piece of cheese contains the same amount of calcium as a similar quantity of bread and nearly as much as the same amount of milk. Fresh soft cheese does not contain as much calcium as hard cheese.49. How did people store milk before the invention of refrigerators?50. Name a type of soft cheese.51. How is brie made?52.
