    • Birds: Warm-blooded, egg-laying vertebrates characterized by feathers and modified forelimbs as wings, enabling flight.

    • Amphibians: Cold-blooded vertebrates capable of living both in aquatic and terrestrial environments, typically undergoing metamorphosis from larvae to adult forms.

    • Reptiles: Cold-blooded vertebrates that breathe air, usually reproduce by laying eggs, and have skin covered with scales or bony plates.

    • Fish: Cold-blooded vertebrates that inhabit water, possess a long, scaly body, fins for limbs, and a vertical tail fin, adapted for aquatic life.
