Classification
All living things can be put into one
of five groups called Kingdoms.
The five Kingdoms are:
Monerans
Protists
Fungi
Plants
Animals
Monerans
Protists
• Have no nucleus (prokaryotic)
•Are mostly single celled, but some are
many celled organisms
• Are single celled organisms
•Examples: bacteria, blue green algae
•Have a nucleus and organelles
(eukaryotic)
•Examples: pond water organisms –
amoeba, paramecium, volvox
Fungi
•
Are many celled organisms (eukaryotic)
• Do not make their own food
• Absorb food from their environment
• Do not move
• Examples: mushrooms, mold, Athlete’s
foot.
Plants
•
Have chlorophyll
• Make their own food
•Are many celled organisms (eukaryotic)
•Have cell walls
•Examples: ferns, trees, bushes, flowers
•
Are many celled organisms (eukaryotic)
• Do not make their own food
• Obtain food by eating
• Examples: insects, fish, frogs, birds, worms,
and people.
All animals can be classified as
belonging to one of two groups:
Those
with
Backbones
OR
Those
without
Backbones
Animals
without Backbones
are called
Invertebrates.
There are many
different types of
Invertebrates:
• Sponges
• Cnidarians: Anemones, Jellyfish, Corals,
and Hydras
• Worms: flatworms, roundworms,
segmented worms
• Mollusks: Snails, Clams and Octopuses
• Echinoderms: Starfish and Urchins
• Arthropods: Insects, Spiders, Ticks,
Lobsters, Crabs, and Crayfish
Sponges
• Are simple animals: look
like plants but are NOT.
•Don’t move – stay in one
place
•Have no Backbone – their
body is filled with holes
and have spiky fibers as a
skeleton.
•Food passes through the
holes which allows them
to catch the food.
Cnidarians: Anemones and
Jellyfish
• Have a soft body
surrounded by arm-like
parts called tentacles
and stinging cells.
•All live in water
• Feed themselves with
their tentacles - The
tentacles catch the
food.
• Have no Backbone
• Can be flat, round, or
Worms
segmented
• Flatworms have a flat
body
• Roundworms have a round
body
• Segmented worms are
divided into small sections
• Have no Backbone
•Worms can be found in
both land and water.
• Worms have a circulatory
system ( many hearts) and a
digestive system – mouth
and anus.
Mollusks: Snails, Clams and
Octopuses
• Often have shells, a
rough tongue, and a
muscular foot.
• Have a head, foot and
well developed organs
• Have no Backbone
Echinoderms: Starfish and
Urchins
• Have a spiny body
• Are arranged in a
circle, like spokes on
a wheel – they have
tiny tube feet
arranged around a
central area.
• Live on the bottom
of the Ocean
• Have no Backbone
Arthropods: Insects, Spiders,
Lobsters, Crabs and Crayfish
• Have a shell like
covering called an
exoskeleton
• Have jointed legs
• Have a segmented
body
•Have no Backbone
•As it grows it
MOLTS or sheds its
exoskeleton.
•A lobster is an
anthropod!
•Largetst group is
the insect group!
Animals
with Backbones
are called
Vertebrates.
There are divided into two groups:
Ectotherm and Endotherms.
Ectotherms – “cold blooded”
Fish
Reptiles
Amphibians
Endotherms – “warm blooded”
Birds
Mammals
There are five groups of
Vertebrates:
Fish
Reptiles
Amphibians
Birds
Mammals
Fish
• Are cold-blooded (ectotherms) can’t
regulate their body temperature.
• Have gills (use to breathe) and scales (to
protect)
• Live in water
• Have a Backbone
•Shark is a fish NOT a mammal.
These are Fish
Fish have Backbones
Reptiles
•Have scales or scaly skin.
•Live on land in hot, dry deserts and in warm,
wet tropical regions.
•Are cold-blooded – ectotherms.
•Usually lay eggs on land.
•Have a Backbone
•Can include animals like crocodiles and
alligators, lizards, turtles, and snakes.
These are Reptiles
Reptiles have Backbones
Amphibians – “double life”
•Begin life in water and as they become adults – move
on land (return to water to reproduce
•Are cold blooded – ectotherms
•Young amphibians breath through gills, adults use
lungs.
•Some have smooth, moist skin
•Lay eggs
•Have a Backbone
•Examples are: frogs, toads, and salamanders.
These are Amphibians
Amphibians have Backbones
Birds
•Have feathers and light-weight hollow bones
that allow for flight
•Are warm-blooded: endotherms. This means
that they can regulate their bodies. Can live in
any temperature.
•Lay eggs
•Have a Backbone - Birds are the only
vertebrates that have wings and are covered in
feathers.
•Have a heart (four chambered)
These are Birds
Birds have Backbones
Mammals
• Have hair or fur
•Are warm-blooded: endotherms.
•Feed milk to their young
•Bear live young
•Have a Backbone
•Four chambered heart
These are Mammals
Mammals have Backbones
Review
Animals without
Backbones are called
invertebrates:
Animals with
backbones are called
vertebrates:
1. Sponges
1. Fish
2. Anemones and Jellyfish
2. Reptiles
3. Worms
3. Amphibians
4. Snails, Clams and Octopuses
5. Starfish and Urchins
6. Insects, Spiders, Ticks,
Lobsters, Crabs, and
Crayfish
4. Birds
5. Mammals

Sorting Activity
•On a separate piece of paper make a chart with
two columns.
•Label one column Vertebrates and the other
Invertebrates.
•Put the following items into the correct column in
which it belongs:
Amphibian, Arachnid, Bee, Bat, Bird, Cat, Clam, Crow,
Dog, Fish, Grasshopper, Grass Snake, Horse, Human,
Jellyfish, Lobster, Mammal, Rat, Reptile, Snail,
Shark, Spotted Turtle, Shrimp, Squid, Spider, Worm

Extra Credit: Research Report
Write a report on your favorite Vertebrate or
Invertebrate. Include the following information:
1. What do I look like?
2. What do I eat?
3. Am I a Vertebrate or Invertebrate?
4. Where do I live?
5. How long do I live?
6. What are the dangers in my life?
7. How do I reproduce?
8. Include a picture (photo, drawing, copy)
