Und wer eine zweiseitige Textaufgabe zum ***Temperaturerhalt*** durch Oberflächenvergrößerung in einer großen Gruppe von Kaiserpinguinen gut beantworten will, der sollte mit 15 Jahren außer in Mathe und Logik vor allem gut im Lesen und Verstehen sein. Da hilft es auch, wenn man mit den Eltern schon ein paar Mal im Tierpark war.
