Arrange the sentences into the correct order.
Put the sentences in the correct order:
- This finely tuned division of labor and recognition system is what allows such enormous, crowded colonies to successfully raise a new generation each year despite the harsh surroundings.
- To find their own chick again amid thousands of identical-looking birds, returning parents rely on a distinctive vocal call that the chick learns to recognize within its first few weeks of life.
- While one parent remains behind to shield the chick from cold and predatory skuas, the other may swim for days before returning with a stomach full of regurgitated fish.
- Raising a single chick in this environment is a race against time, since both parents must alternate between guarding the nest and traveling long distances out to sea to feed.
- On the exposed coastlines of the Antarctic, thousands of penguins gather each breeding season into dense colonies that can stretch for kilometers along the shore.
