This document categorizes and describes six different types of animals: mammals, birds, fish, reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. It notes that mammals are defined by drinking milk as babies and having hair. Birds are defined by having feathers, wings, tails, and the ability to fly using overlapping feathers. Fish are vertebrates that live in water and have gills, scales and fins. Reptiles are cold-blooded with scaly skin and are born on land. Amphibians are born in water and develop lungs after birth. Invertebrates lack backbones and make up over 95% of all animal species.

Mammals,birds and fish (1)
This document discusses characteristics of mammals, birds, and fish. Mammals are born from their mother's womb, drink milk, and humans are mammals. Birds are born from eggs, covered with feathers, and can fly. Fish are also born from eggs, covered with scales, and have fins.
Animal Groups Basal Reader
Animals are classified into groups based on shared characteristics. The main groups are mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and insects. Mammals give birth to live young and are warm-blooded, while birds lay eggs and have feathers, and reptiles have dry scaly skin and are cold-blooded. Amphibians can live on land and water and lay eggs, fish only live in water and breathe through gills, and insects have a three-part body and six legs.
Aves Project
Aves refers to the classification of birds. Birds come in a variety of sizes and colors from two inches to ten feet. A bird's internal transport system includes a gizzard for grinding food and intestines for absorbing nutrients. Birds are endothermic and regulate their temperature through metabolism. They reproduce sexually, with fertilization occurring internally. While some birds like penguins cannot fly and swim instead, birds generally fly through powered flight. Their diet consists of various plants and small animals. Birds are important to ecosystems and some species are endangered or extinct.
Invertebrates presentation
The document classifies all animals into two main groups: vertebrates, which have backbones, and invertebrates, which do not. Vertebrates are divided into five subgroups: fish, amphibians, birds, mammals, and reptiles. Each subgroup is described in one or two sentences, noting key distinguishing characteristics like temperature regulation, habitat, locomotion abilities, and parenting methods.
Amphibians
Amphibians are vertebrates that lay eggs and undergo metamorphosis. They are born in water with gills but grow lungs and four legs as adults on land. Their skin is bare and moist to aid in respiration. Common types of amphibians include frogs, toads, salamanders, and newts.
Phylum Chordata - Class Reptilia, Aves, and Mammalia
Amniotes such as reptiles, birds, and mammals have three key characteristics that decrease their dependence on water: 1) Amniotic eggs that are waterproof and contain fluid for embryo development, 2) Internal fertilization, and 3) Water-tight skin made of keratin that prevents dehydration. Reptiles have scales as their water-tight skin while birds evolved from small dinosaurs and have feathers that function in flight, insulation, and as modified scales. Birds are endothermic like mammals and have specialized adaptations for flight including wing shape, feathers, air sacs for respiration, lightweight honeycombed bones, and lack of teeth replaced by a muscular gizzard.
Classification Of Animals
This document classifies animals into groups based on their characteristics. It discusses the key traits of mammals, reptiles and amphibians, birds, insects and arachnids, and fish. Mammals are warm-blooded, have hair or fur, and feed their live young with mother's milk. Reptiles and amphibians are cold-blooded and lay eggs, but amphibians have moist skin and begin life in water. Birds are warm-blooded and covered in feathers, laying eggs from which hatch. Insects and arachnids have exoskeletons, multiple legs, breathe through holes, are cold-blooded, and hatch from eggs. Fish live entirely in water, breathe
Insects
Insects have three main body parts - a head with antennae for touching, tasting, and smelling, a middle thorax section with six legs and sometimes one or two pairs of wings, and an abdomen. They undergo metamorphosis from egg to larva to either a direct transformation into an adult or transformation inside a pupa or chrysalis, and examples include carnivorous Hawaiian caterpillars and bush crickets or herbivorous monarch caterpillars and grasshoppers.

Reptiles
This document discusses the evolution of land animals from water-dwelling creatures. It lists physical attributes like lungs, limbs, scales, shells and tails that helped early creatures adapt from water to land and allowed for different diets like carnivores, omnivores and herbivores.
Birds
Birds have feathers that help them fly and stay warm. They preen and molt feathers regularly. Birds have fast digestion and eat high protein foods like seeds and insects since they lack teeth. Their light skeletons and powerful muscles allow flight through lift generated by air moving over wings. Birds build nests and care for young through brooding or by having precocial or altricial chicks. There are many kinds of birds including flightless, water, perching, and birds of prey.
Amphibians
Amphibians are tetrapods that either live on both land and water or have different life stages in each habitat. There are three modern orders of amphibians:
1. Caudata (salamanders and newts): Found in cool, moist habitats in the Northern Hemisphere. They have moist skin and internal fertilization. Larvae develop in water.
2. Gymnophiona (caecilians): Worm-like amphibians found in tropical regions. They burrow underground and have either aquatic or terrestrial larvae.
3. Anura (frogs and toads): Found worldwide in moist habitats. They undergo metamorphosis from aquatic tadpoles to terrestrial
Birds
The document discusses the evolution of birds from feathered dinosaurs like Archaeopteryx. The first fossil found of Archaeopteryx was a single feather in 1860, and a year later a near-complete skeleton was discovered. Archaeopteryx had features intermediate between reptiles and birds, suggesting birds evolved from small feathered dinosaurs. Seven Archaeopteryx skeletons have now been found and provide important clues about avian evolution. The rest of the document is a checklist of Alabama bird species with descriptions and images.
Birds
This document provides an overview of birds, including their:
- Adaptations for flight including feathers, lightweight skeletons, and specialized respiratory systems.
- Global distribution in most habitats.
- Varied diets and specialized beaks.
- Reproduction through shelled eggs and parental care of hatchlings.
- Complex social behaviors like mating systems, migration, and nesting.
Birds 10-3
1. Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species in 1859 which helped establish modern evolutionary theory and Archaeopteryx was identified as an early bird.
2. Theropod dinosaurs were bipedal and had many avian characteristics like wishbones which helped evolve into modern birds. The evolution of feathers allowed for flight.
3. Birds have many adaptations for flight like wing shape, feather structure, strong pectoral muscles, and high metabolisms which allow for sustained flapping.
Classification of animals
This document classifies and describes living things. It divides all living things into two main groups: animals and plants. Animals are further divided into vertebrates and invertebrates. Vertebrates are animals with backbones and include five groups: amphibians, birds, fish, mammals, and reptiles. Invertebrates do not have backbones and include eight groups such as molluscs, flatworms, annelids, and arthropods. Arthropods are further classified into four subgroups: arachnids, centipedes and millipedes, crustaceans, and insects.
Reptiles, by Blanca, Fernando and Carlos
Reptiles are cold-blooded, terrestrial vertebrates covered in scales that breathe through lungs and lay eggs. They can live both on land and in water, and while most are carnivorous, their hearts have a unique structure with two atria and one ventricle. Specific interesting facts are that baby snakes are more venomous than adults, a chameleon's tongue can double its body size, and reptile eggs develop inside an amniotic sac filled with liquid.
Amphibians Frog
The document discusses the lifecycle of frogs. It begins in the water, with female frogs laying eggs protected by jelly. The eggs hatch into tadpoles that breathe with gills and eat as they grow. Tadpoles eventually grow legs and lose their tails, becoming froglets that can breathe on land. Finally, the froglets mature into adult frogs that live on land and have fully developed lungs and limbs.
All about frogs!.ppt
Frogs are amphibians that live both on land and in water. They have short bodies, webbed fingers or toes, protruding eyes, and lack tails. Most species live in rainforests and all over the world except Antarctica and some islands. Many frogs use camouflage to hide and some can change colors. Poisonous frogs often have bright colors and obtain toxins from their diets to deter predators. Frogs eat insects and small animals, going through a life cycle from egg to tadpole to adult. They communicate through loud calls to find mates and mark territory.
Unit 3 summary
This document summarizes key information about different groups of animals. It covers mammals, birds, fish and amphibians, invertebrates including insects, spiders and worms, and reptiles including snakes, lizards, crocodiles, tortoises and turtles. For each group, it outlines defining characteristics such as how they breathe, move, reproduce, and whether they are warm or cold-blooded. It also provides examples of common animals within each group.
3.2 what are vertebrates
Vertebrates are animals that have backbones. There are five major groups of vertebrates: mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish. Each group has distinct characteristics - mammals have hair and feed their young milk, birds have feathers and lay eggs, reptiles have scaly skin and lay eggs on land, amphibians have moist skin and lay eggs in water, and fish live entirely in water and breathe through gills. The document provides examples of different types of animals that fall into each of the five vertebrate groups.
The bird
This document discusses the key characteristics of birds. It notes that birds are endothermic, having feathers, wings, and a lightweight skeleton adapted for flight. Their fast metabolism allows efficient digestion to fuel flight and maintain a high body temperature of 40-44 degrees Celsius. Feathers insulate birds and flight requires adaptations like a strong breastbone and fused collarbone. A bird's beak and feet reflect its diet and habitat, with different shapes for perching, wading, or catching prey.
Lesson about Animal Groups
The document classifies animals into two main groups: vertebrates and invertebrates. Vertebrates, which make up a small portion, have backbones and are further divided into five classes - fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. Each class has distinguishing characteristics, such as fishes having scales and gills, amphibians living partly on land and in water, and mammals having hair and mammary glands. Invertebrates, which comprise 90% of species, lack backbones.

Amphibians (Vertebrates)
1. Amphibians show variations in temperature sensitivity and shed their skin periodically. They are found throughout the world except Antarctica and Greenland.
2. They have four limbs, loosely attached skin with warts, eyes with lids, tympani behind eyes, and morphology varies by species.
3. Their skin has mucus glands and is permeable. They are cold-blooded, detect low sounds, and communicate using signals. Some camouflage or use bright colors.
4. They have indirect development with larvae and metamorphosis to adults. Reproduction involves eggs laid in water with gel coats that swell. Fertilization varies between internal and external.

Major groups include animals and plants, with animals further divided into vertebrates like mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish and invertebrates, and plants divided into non-flowering like algae and mosses versus flowering plants. Key distinguishing characteristics are described for each group's habitat, temperature regulation, skin/feather/scale coverage, breathing structure, reproduction method, locomotion, and more.
Vertebrates
Vertebrates are characterized by having a backbone, skull, and internal skeleton. They include fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. Fish live exclusively in water and have fins and scales. Amphibians can live on land and in water, are ectothermic, and have moist skin. Reptiles are amniotes that lay shelled eggs and most have scales and four legs. Birds are endothermic, lay shelled eggs, have feathers, beaks, and wings. Mammals are endothermic and feed their young with milk produced by mammary glands.
