Q&A
How are vertebrates further classified based on specific characteristics?
Vertebrates are classified into mammals, reptiles, amphibians, birds, and fish. Each category has specific traits based on body coverings, habitats, and methods of birth.
What is the classification of animals based on vertebrates and invertebrates?
Animals are classified into vertebrates (e.g., carabao, chicken) and invertebrates (e.g., butterfly, snail). Vertebrates have backbones, whereas invertebrates do not.
How do amphibians differ from reptiles?
Amphibians have moist and scaleless skin and spend time in water and on land, while reptiles have dry scaly skin, some with shells. Examples of amphibians include salamander, newt, toad, and sicilian, while examples of reptiles include turtles, chameleon, snake, lizard, and gecko.
What are the characteristics of fish and birds?
Fish have scales, tails, and fins for swimming. Birds are warm-blooded, hatch from eggs, and have wings for flying. Some birds have wings but can't fly, and they use beaks or bills to obtain food.
What are the differences between invertebrates and vertebrates?
Invertebrates have no backbone, while vertebrates have a backbone. Vertebrates are further classified into mammals, fish, birds, amphibians, and reptiles.
What are the main environments where animals can be found?
Animals can be found in diverse environments such as the sea, grassland, forests, ponds, sanctuaries, and homes.
- 00:00Β Animals can be found in diverse environments, including sea, grassland, forests, ponds, sanctuaries, and homes. Vertebrates have backbones and diverse body parts for different activities and diets. Local animals are classified into vertebrates and invertebrates.

- 03:04Β Amphibians and reptiles are both cold-blooded animals with some distinct differences in their physical characteristics and habitats. Amphibians have moist and scaleless skin and spend part of their lives in water and part on land, while reptiles have dry scaly skin and many have shells. Examples of amphibians include salamander, newt, toad, and sicilian, while examples of reptiles include turtles, chameleon, snake, lizard, and gecko.
