What type of reasoning is used in this example Penguins eat fish?

The statement "Penguins eat fish" is a declarative statement, not a reasoning. It is a statement of fact, not an argument.

To determine the type of reasoning, we would need a more complex example, such as:

* Deductive reasoning: "All penguins are birds. Birds have feathers. Therefore, penguins have feathers."

* Inductive reasoning: "I saw a penguin eating fish. I saw another penguin eating fish. Therefore, all penguins eat fish."

* Abductive reasoning: "I saw a penguin covered in fish scales. I know penguins eat fish. Therefore, the penguin must have recently eaten fish."
