Classifying Animals Chapter 1 Lesson 2
2
Table of Contents Science Process Skills------------------1 Parts of a Cell------------------------------ Classifying Animals----------------------# Use your Classifying Animals lab as the starting page for this lesson! Turn to the next clean page (it can be the back of a page) and title it “CLASSIFYING ANIMALS”
3
Vocabulary Cut out all vocabulary terms on page 8 and paste them into your journal underneath the heading “classifying animals” Cut out pictures and definitions of radial and bilateral symmetry on page 8 and paste below vocabulary definitions
4
Characteristics of Animals 1.Multi-cellular 2.Require oxygen 3.Consume other organisms for food 4.Able to move at some point 5.Reproduce 6.Divided into 2 categories Invertebrates vertebrates
5
Invertebrates No backbone Largest group Very diverse
6
Invertebrates 1.Cnidarians- Radial symmetry Simple digestive systems Examples: jellyfish and coral
7
Invertebrates 2.Echinoderms- Spiny-skin Sucker like parts to catch prey Examples: starfish, sea urchins, sea cucumbers
8
Invertebrates 3.Sponges- Simple organisms No true body symmetry Filter bits of food from water that passes through them
9
Invertebrates 4.Mollusks- Soft bodies Most have shells Examples oysters, snails, squid, octopus
10
Invertebrates 5.Worms- Simple organ systems Bilateral symmetry Many are parasitic Examples: flatworms, roundworms, earthworms
11
Invertebrates 6.Arthropods- Largest group of invertebrates Jointed body parts Exoskeletons Bilateral symmetry Examples: lobsters, spiders, insects

13
Vertebrates Have a backbone Two types Cold blooded Warm blooded
14
Vertebrates 1.Fish Cold blooded Use gills to obtain oxygen
15
Vertebrates 2.Amphibians Cold blooded Begin life in water but do not live life there Need water to reproduce Ex: frog, salamander, newt
16
Vertebrates 3.Reptiles Cold-blooded Most lay eggs Dry, scaly skin Examples: lizards, snakes, turtles
17
Vertebrates 4.Birds Warm blooded Lay eggs Feathers (some fly, others don’t) Examples: ostrich, penguin, robin
18
Vertebrates 5. Mammals Warm blooded Complex body systems Large brain Fur, live birth, feed milk to young Example: bear, kangaroo, whale
