VertebratesAmphibians, fishes, birds, reptiles, marsupials, monotremes, and placental mammals

Amphibians• Animals that start their lives in water and then

Bony fish have jaws, scales a pocket on each side of the head (for holding the gills) and a skeleton of hard bones. This includes trout.

For the Re-take quiz Friday:You must know: What kind of animals are found in which

class & What are the characteristics of animals in each class
