heil. II. Body Point A. Emperor penguins are native to the desolate land of Antarctic Location: 1. Antarctica, as many of you know, is in the southern hemisphere at the south pole. It occupies a space of 14 million square kilometers. 280,000 sq kilometers is ice-free, while 13.72 million square kilometers is covered in ice. The ice free zone, has no vegetation, it is simply barren rock. The terrain varies from peninsulas and ice-free coasts, to mountain ranges and trenches. As a matter of fact
rarely ever gets above freezing. The reason why the Antarctic is so cold is because sunlight has to go through a thicker atmosphere to hit it as Earth is on an angle which also means the light rays are spread over a larger area than if they were hitting Antarctica directly. This means light is spread over a larger area thus not warming as much as it could. When sunlight does eventually meet Antarctica, a lot of the rays are bounced off due to the Antarctic being made of very reflective, shiny white ice
Evolutionists theorize that penguins could once fly. However, God created penguins as they are, so this is not the case. Penguins are very unique and captivating. This animal is just another phenomenal example of how immense and innovative God is with his work. In order to understand the significance of the penguin, one must understand the body structure, habitat, and diet of a penguin. All penguins have distinct body structures. The largest species of penguins are the Emperor penguins, which
The Impact of Climate Change on Leopard Seals (Hydrurga leptonyx) Leopard seals (Hydrurga leptonyx) are a species of ice-obligate seals that are widely distributed in Antarctic and sub-Antarctic waters (Hückstädt, 2015). The most recent circumpolar estimate of leopard seal abundance suggests more than 35,000 individuals, and there does not appear to be a declining trend on these numbers. The IUCN, for this reason, list the leopard seal as Least Concern (Hückstädt, 2015). However, climate change

(William F. Perrin, 2008). There is not enough data to determine with certainty the specific characteristics and traits of these species; as less than 20 specimens have been measured (Thomas A.
