All animals are multicellular and heterotrophic.• lack cell walls. • have nerves and muscles• Most can move and ability of flight is unique to
animals.
• Most reproduce sexually• Most are invertebrates • Most animals live in the sea
Animals can vary greatly
They can be found in the arctic, the rainforests of South America, deep ocean trenches, and at the tops of mountains.

Invertebrates: jellyfish, spiders and earth worms are all animals.
Vertebrates: reptiles, amphibians, fish, birds and mammals are vertebrate animals
Fossils show as animals evolved they became more complex.
Birds are thought to be descendents of
dinosaurs.
