12. What are vertebrates? Vertebrates are animals with backbones that give shape and support their body.

13. Bones are predominant feature in the body of vertebral animals that serve as protection of their internal organs. The presence of bones in the animal’s body helps the animals to walk, jump, crawl, and swim.

14. Animals can be oviparous and viviparous . Viviparous are animals that are born alive by their parents such as dogs, carabao, and cats. Oviparous animals are those that are hatched from egg such as chicken, duck, and snake.

15. 5 Groups of Vertebrates

16. Mammals Birds Amphibians Reptiles Fish

17. 1. Mammals are warm- blooded animals that are born alive or viviparous. They have hair or fur as their body covering and mammary gland to feed their young with their milk.

18. 2. Fish are cold-blooded animals covered with scales . They have tails and fins that help them swim. They are animals hatched from egg and breathe through their gills.

19. 3. Birds are warm-blooded animals hatched from egg or oviparous. They have a pair of limbs for hopping and a pair of wings used in flying. There are birds who have wings but can’t fly. A beak or bill is used in getting food as well as for protecting themselves from their enemies.

20. 4. Amphibians are cold-blooded animals hatched from egg . They spend part of their lives in water and part on land . They have moist and scaleless skin . Some examples are salamander, newt, toad and caecilian.

21. 5. Reptiles are cold-blooded vertebrates hatched from egg . They have dry scaly skin and some have shells . Some examples are turtles, chameleon, snake, lizard, and gecko.

22. Directions: Classify the following vertebrates in their proper column.
