Characteristics of Animals Multicellular eukaryotes Multicellular eukaryotes Ability to move to reproduce, obtain food, protection Ability to move to reproduce, obtain food, protection Do NOT have cell walls Do NOT have cell walls Heterotrophs: consume other organisms for energy Heterotrophs: consume other organisms for energy
Characteristics of Animals Digestion of food and storage for energy later (ATP) Tissues, organs, organ systems (nerves and muscles unique to animals) Most reproduce sexually
Invertebrates: Animals that lack internal backbones Animals that lack internal backbones 95% of the animal kingdom 95% of the animal kingdom Exoskeletons are common, can have endoskeleton Exoskeletons are common, can have endoskeleton Examples: sponges, worms, mollusks, arthropods (insects, crabs), jellyfish Examples: sponges, worms, mollusks, arthropods (insects, crabs), jellyfish
Invertebrates Ex. Sponges: asymmetrical, filter feeders, sessile
Invertebrates Ex. Cnidarians: radial symmetry, nematocyst (barbed spine with toxin) Ex. Cnidarians: radial symmetry, nematocyst (barbed spine with toxin) jellyfish, corals, sea anemones jellyfish, corals, sea anemones
Invertebrates Ex. Worms: can be flat, round, or segmented, can be parasitic Ex. Worms: can be flat, round, or segmented, can be parasitic

Invertebrates Ex. Echinoderms: endoskeleton, tube feet Ex. Echinoderms: endoskeleton, tube feet Sea urchins, sea stars Sea urchins, sea stars
Vertebrates: Animals that have internal backbones Animals that have internal backbones All have bilateral symmetry (can be divided into two identical halves) All have bilateral symmetry (can be divided into two identical halves)
Examples of Vertebrates: Fish: Fish: Aquatic, have gills Aquatic, have gills 2-chambered heart 2-chambered heart Usually lay eggs Usually lay eggs
Class Chondrichthyes: Cartilaginous fish
Jawless Fish:
Examples of Vertebrates: Amphibians: Life in water and on land Moist skin Eggs lack shells so must be laid in moist areas Breathe with lungs or skin Ex: frogs, toads, salamanders Class Amphibia
Examples of Vertebrates: Reptiles: Reptiles: Scaly skin Scaly skin Amniotic egg Amniotic egg Ex: snakes, turtles, crocodiles Ex: snakes, turtles, crocodiles Class Reptilia
Examples of Vertebrates: Birds: Birds: Feathers Feathers Hollow bones Hollow bones Wings for flight Wings for flight Ex: flamingo, owl, eagle, robin Ex: flamingo, owl, eagle, robin Class Aves:
Examples of Vertebrates: Mammals: Hair or fur Milk Complex behavior (parental care) Bear live young instead of eggs (exception: marsupials & platypus) Placental mammals: baby develops in uterus Ex: humans, dog, horse, whale, elephant, bat
