water and oil experiment

We now understand that water and oil don't mix. That is why the top layer of feathers on the penguin, (on top of the blubber and 1st layer of feathers,) has a coating of a special oil like substance. In this way, even when the penguin swims in the freezing waters, it is able to stay warm.
