Kingdom Animalia
Animals Multi-celled Use mitochondria to make energy (cell respiration) Reproduce sexually (few asexual) Motile – able to move
Invertebrates No back bone Cold blooded (can’t regulate body temp)
Porifera Sponges No body symmetry One body opening Filter water for food
Releasing Sperm The osculum is pumping out a dye
Cnidaria Jellyfish, Coral Reefs Radial symmetry – circular One body opening Have nematocysts- stinging cells Filter and hunt
Man-o-war
Worms Round, flat, segmented(Earthworms, night crawlers, leeches) Bilateral symmetry – mirror halves Two body openings (Decomposers or parasites)
Mollusks Clams, snails, octopus, squids Bilateral symmetry – mirror halves Two body openings Have shells Most intelligent invertebrates
Echinoderms Starfish, sand dollars, sea urchin Have radial symmetry (circle symmetry) Two body openings Have suction cup like, tube feet (feeding and breathing)
Arthropods Bugs, insects, shell fish Bilateral symmetry – mirror halves Two body openings Have hard exoskeletons –outer skeleton Largest group of animals on earth
Vertebrates Have Spinal Chords and backbones to protect them
Fish Sharks, Rays, Tuna, Etc Ectothermic -Cold blooded Have gills External fertilization Wet scales
Amphibians Frogs, toads, salamanders Coldblooded External fertilization Gills to lungs Smooth wet skin
Frogs, Toads, Salamanders
Reptiles Alligators, crocs.,snakes, lizards Coldblooded Lungs Internal fertilization, lay eggs Dry scales
Turtles, Snakes, Crocodiles, Alligators Lizards
Birds Song birds, water fowl, birds of prey Endothermic Warm blooded- regulate body temp Lungs with air sacs Internal fert., lay eggs feathers
Song birds, wood peckers, humming
Water fowl, pelican, heron, sea gull
Hawk, falcon, eagle, owl, vulture
Mammals Whales, dolphins, canines, felines Warm blooded Lungs Internal fert.: placental-fully developed live birth Marsupial – live birth, but babies develop in pouches (kangaroo) Monotremes- lay egg (platypus) Have fur
Placental Mammals
