GENERAL INFORMATIONElizabeth Breen

CHARACTERISTICS OF ANIMALIA

Multi-Cellular

Heterotrophic

Eukaryotic Cells

PHYLA

Vertebrates and Invertebrates

Arthropoda

Chordata Arthropoda Porifera

Vertebrates

They have a back bone.

2% of the species 2,000,000 species Small and slow Phyla

30 different groups

No back bone. 98% of the species 57,739 species Big in size Phyla

Fish Amphibians Reptiles Birds Mammals

Vertebrate Invertebrate

REPRODUCTION Taylour Barnum

REPRODUCTION

AsexuallyBudding: offspring grows out of the body of

the parent Examples: sea sponge

Sexually Spawning: a large amount of eggs in water

when hatched is called a spawn

Examples: fish, amphibians Internal Birth: fertilized within the female

reproductive tractExample: reptiles, birds, mammals.

OFFSPRING

Take features need for survival Stay close to the mother Very playful and clumsy Have features that later go away

Example: a lion born with spots but disappear days later

METABOLISM

Chemical reactions allowing growth and reproduction

All animals are heterotrophic Go out and find food

FOOD

Hunt and search Consumers- eat producers

Ex: birds, bugs and squirrels Predators- eat consumers

Ex: lions, cougars, jaguars Decomposers- brake down of dead animals

Ex: worms, mice, vultures

STRUCTURE Rachel Teeter

STRUCTURE

•Eukaryotic

•Has a nucleus

•More complex then prokaryotic

•Has a cell membrane

SPECIALIZATION

Multicellular

Tissues and organs

Sponges are an exception

CELL STRUCTURE

Eats to get energy

Animals do not have cell walls

UNIQUE STRUCTURES

Most if not all animals can move Invertebrates or vertebrates

SPECIAL STRUCTURES Some animals have more

specialization then others

Examples: Camels, Elephants…

HEREDITYAlyssa Ziegler

HEREDITY

Animals store their genetic information in genes.

Gene’s hold the information to build and maintain an organism's cells and pass genetic traits to offspring.

They transfer their genetic information through sexual reproduction.

HABITATS Forest Ex: Deer, Squirrels…

Ocean Ex: Whales, Crabs… Arctic Ex: Penguins, Polar Bears… Meadow Ex: Pheasants, Rabbits… Mountains Ex: Bears, Cougars… Lake/River/Pond Ex: Fish, Frogs… Savannah Ex: Lions, Zebras… In the ground Ex: Worms, beetles… Trees Ex: Birds, monkeys… Jungle Ex: jaguars, panthers…

Animals need on oxygen to breathe Herbivore- animals that eat plants.

-Ex: Horses, Cows… Omnivore- animals that eat plants and other

animals.-Ex: Bear, Raccoons…

Carnivore- animals that only eat other animals.-Ex: Wolves, lions…

Gases and nutrients Animalia rely on

HOW DOES WATER FACTOR INTO THEIR LIFE?

Animals need water to live Some animals store large amounts of water

for later use-Ex: Camels, giraffes…

Animals that live in the ocean Depending on their environment, they will

have different sources of water around them-Ex: lake, oasis, ocean, river…

CONDITIONS THEY MUST MAINTAIN TO KEEP LIVING

• The Arctic hare’s coat changes in the winter and in the summer

• Thicker in the winter• Thinner in the

summer• Blend in

(camouflage)
