The Animal Kingdom

 The Animal Kingdom 

We have just started our new topic called Ecology. This is where we learn about Environment, Plants, and Bacteria. We just finished our topic about sound and energy but sadly they are no blog posts about the sound and energy topic.

Vertebrates:

Fish: Fishes live in water. Fishes have girls so they can breathe underwater. Fishes also have moist skin covered in scales. Fishes are also cold-blooded, this is because at night the water becomes cooler.

Examples: Tuna and Salmon




Amphibian: Amphibians have moist skins. Adult amphibians breathe with lungs and some adults live on land and they are also cold-blooded. They are cold blooded because when its night time it is cooler. It has the same reason why fishes are cold blooded.

Examples: Frogs and toads




Reptiles: Reptiles have Dry scaly skin. The dry scaly skin actually helps them keep moisturized. Adult reptiles breathe with lungs underwater. Reptiles are also cold-blooded.

Examples: Charmelion, Crocodile



Birds: Birds are covered in feathers. Birds are really different from other types of groups because birds lay eggs with hard shells to protect them. They use wings to fly to hunt for food.




Mammals: They are covered in hair or fur. Their hair keeps them warm at night. Mammals feed their babies with milk. They are warm-blooded.  They use lungs to keep them breathing.
