The skeleton holds up and protect the body.
Vertebrates classified into five group;

Mammals - are warm-blooded animals that nurse their young with milk and have fur
or hair. Some example of mammals includes dolphins, giraffes and horses.

Reptiles - are cold-blooded animals which lay eggs. Their skin is covered with hard
and dry scale. Reptile species include alligator, crocodiles, snake, lizard, and
tortoise.

Amphibians - are cold-blooded animals they start out their lives living in the water
with gills just like fish. Later they develop lungs and can move to dry land.
Amphibians include frogs, toads, nest and salamanders.

Birds- are animals that have feathers, wings, and lay eggs. Many, but not all, birds
can fly. Birds include the bald eagle, the cardinal, the flamingo, ostriches and the
red-tailed hawk.
Fish - are animals that live in the water. They have grills that allow them to breathe
under water. Different species of fish may live in fresh water or salt water. Fish
includes the brook trout, the great white shark, lionfish and the swordfish.
