Chaterion Reed All animals are members of the kingdom Animalia, also called Metazo. This kingdom does not contain the prokayotes (Kingdom Monera, includes bacteria, blue-green a-lgae. All animal cell lack the rigid cell walls that characterize plant cells. The bodies of most animal all except sponges are made up of cells organized into tissues, each tissue specializes to same degree to perform specific functions. Somewhere around 9 or 10 million species of animals inhabit the earth; the exact number is not known and even our estimates are very rough. Animals range in size from no more than a few cells to organisms weighing many tons, such as blue whales and giant squid.

Warm blooded vertebrate animals which have hair or fur. Retain the young in their bodies until they are ready to be born. When the young are born they are fed by the mother on milk.Mammals have a highly developed nervous system. They live on land and in the sea.

Environment

Think about recycling and maybe the first thing to pop into your head isn't damage thats done to the earth when we use product with harmful chemicals, but thats part of the cycle, too. As well as reducing waste, recycling products and reusing what can be reused, protecting the earth from harm is all a part of the same cause. There are so many options for safe- cleaning on the market today that you don't really have to look much further than your local grocery shelf.

Many chemicals are unable to breakdown after they have been used and may make their ways into streams and have disasterous affect on any forms of life that inhabit the stream. It will only take a little effort on the part of consumers to prevent something like this from happening, but we must start somewhere. We need to be careful with the chemicals we have easy access to and become more responsible for what happens as the result of our choices

Mollusks

A Mollusks had an outer shell.It has a soft body. It has a muscular foot that it uses for movement. A Mollusk has food brought in through a siphon system and then to its mouth. It then goes to a digestive gland and to its intestine. Wastes leave via the anus. A Mollusks has no formal nervous system, but has a series of ganglia that conduct impulses.

A Mollusks has a heart, blood and blood vessels. A Mollusk has tubes called siphons that bring water in and out of their bodies so that they can get oxygen and give off carbon dioxide. They have gills that help with this. A Mollusks is either male or female and reproduces sexually with a large organ called a gonad.

Arthropods

Arthropods are animals with segmented bodies and six or more jointed legs. They are the largest animal group on Earth. In fact, more than three out of four of all animals are arthropods. They are found everywhere on land, in trees, in freshwater and saltwater, and even underground. Arthropods are generally small. Most are less than 1 cm long. Some arthropods, however, are quite large. The giant king crab, measures over 3.2 m from the tip of one outstretched leg to another.

Echinoderms

Echinoderms are radially symmetrical animals that are only found in the sea there are none on land or in fresh water. Echinoderms means spiny skin in greek. Many, but not all , echinoderms have spiny skin. There are over 6,000 species. Echinoderms usually have five appendages arms or rays, but there are some exceptions. MOst adult echinoderms live on the bottom of the ocean floor. Many echinoderms have suckers on the end of their feet that are used to capture and hold prey, and to hold onto rocks in a swift current.

Aves

The vertebrate class Ave include the birds, an extremely distinctive and successful clade, with an estimated 9000 species worldwide, including the snowy owl pictured here. Although descended from the dinosaurs, birds have evolved remarkable specializations for flight and unique one way breathing system, light yet strong hollow bones, a skeleton in which many bones are fused or lost, powerful flight muscles, and most importantly feathers.
