Classify =Sort
There are many different ways to group living organisms.
You can classify animals into two main groups,vertebrate or invertebrate.

All vertebrates have. . .

Skeleton inside their body
Muscles that help them move
Blood that moves through tubes 
lungs or gills for breathing.

Invertebrates

90% of all animal on earth are invertebrates
They tend to be small because they don't have a backbone.
Many live in the ocean because water supports their weight.
Some have a hard covering or shell on the outside of their bodies for protection
