  2. Types of Animals • There are two main types of animals: Vertebrates and Invertebrates • Vertebrates (have a backbone): • Mammals • Reptiles • Amphibians • Birds • Fish • Invertebrates (do not have a backbone): • Arthropods

  3. Vertebrates • All vertebrates have a backbone • All vertebrates have a skeleton on the inside of their body to protect their organs • All vertebrates are covered in skin • Soft • Slimy • Scaly

  4. Mammals • Every mammal: • Has a backbone • Has hair or fur • Is warm-blooded • Breathes oxygen • Has live babies • Drinks milk while they are babies

  7. Birds • Every reptiles • Has a backbone • Has feathers • Is warm-blooded • Lays eggs • Has a beak

  8. Amphibians • Every amphibian: • Has a backbone • Lives in and out of water • Breathes oxygen • Born in the water • Lays eggs • The only type of animal that does not live in the ocean

  9. Invertebrates • Do not have a backbone • Organs are protected from the outside with a shell or exoskeleton • Arthropods make up 90 percent of the Earth’s animals

  10. Arthropods • Every arthropod: • Does not have a backbone • Has six or more legs • Jointed legs • Segmented bodies
