Answer
Fight adaptations of the birds are the following:
- Forelimbs are modified into wings for flying.
- Body is light as they have hollow (pneumatic) bones.
- Body is streamlined to reduce air resistance during flight.
- Flights muscles are well developed.
- Body is covered with exoskeleton of water-proof and light-weight feathers.

The scientists now say that there are actually five states of matter $A, B, C, D$ and $E.$ The state $A$ has a fixed volume but no fixed shape. The state $B$ can be compressed very easily by applying pressure and state $C$ has a fixed shape as well as a fixed volume. The state $D$ is mixture of free electrons and ions whereas state $E$ is named after an Indian scientist and a famous physicist.
→- Name the physical states $(i) A (ii) B (iii) C (iv) D$, and $(v) E.$
