why bat is a mammal and penguin is an Aves?


if you observing the video above you can see the body of a bat is covered with fur not with feather and the bats give birth while Aves should lay eggs.

A penguin on the other hand, looks like it covered with fur, but if you take a closer look.....the penguin's body is covered by small and stiff feathers, and they also lay eggs (click it if you want to see the movie).

visit this web to observe their feathers:

Those are the characteristics that you can easily see....how about the other characteristics too distinguish them?

please look at your notes to get the right answers:)
