  • Snakes are classified under the phylum Reptilia, indicating they are reptiles.
  • Lions are classified in the class Mammalia, confirming they are mammals.
  • Not all arthropods fall under the class Insecta; the group also includes arachnids and crustaceans.
  • All rodents, such as mice and rats, are part of the phylum Chordata, which includes all vertebrates.
