Mamíferos: Animales vivíparos que nacen con pulmones desarrollados y maduros. Caracterizados por glándulas mamarias, pelo y sangre caliente. El mamífero más grande es la ballena azul, que puede medir hasta 30 metros.

Aves: Animales que nacen de huevos, poseen bipedismo y algunos de ellos pueden volar. Su esqueleto es ligero y hueco y respiran a través de pulmones, al igual que tienen sangre caliente. El ave más pesada es el avestruz y el que vuela más rápido es la águila, que alcanza hasta 300 kilómetros por hora.

Peces: Animales acuáticos que nacen de huevos y nadan mediante aletas. Su cuerpo está cubierto de escamas y respiran a través de branquias, teniendo sangre fría. Algunos peces como el salmón migran de aguas saladas a aguas dulces.

Anfibios: Animales que nacen de huevos, cuyas crías nacen en el agua y respiran a través de branquias. Una vez crecidos, pueden vivir tanto en el agua como en el terreno y respiran por pulmones y piel. Anfibios son los únicos vertebrados que al nacer tienen cola y viven en ambientes acuáticos.

What are the five main types of vertebrates? (1)

Mammals: They are born live from their mothers and have mammary glands, warm-blooded, and almost all have fur. The largest mammal is the blue whale, which can measure up to 30 meters long.

Birds: They hatch from eggs, have two legs, and some can fly. Their skeleton is light and hollow, and they have warm blood and lungs for breathing. The heaviest bird is the ostrich, and the fastest-flying bird is the eagle, which can reach speeds of 300 kilometers per hour.

Fish: They are aquatic animals that hatch from eggs, and they swim using fins. Their bodies are covered in scales, and they breathe through gills and have cold blood. Some fish, like the salmon, migrate from saltwater to freshwater.

Amphibians: They hatch from eggs, and their tadpoles live in water, breathing through gills. As they grow, they can live both in the water and on land, using lungs and their skin to breathe. Amphibians are the only vertebrates that are born with a tail and live in water.

Reptiles: They hatch from eggs, have hard, scaly skin, and short limbs. Some reptiles have a shell, like turtles. They have cold blood and breathe through lungs, and they often live in warm environments. Some reptiles can live over 100 years.

Birds: These are the animals that hatch from eggs, have two legs, and some can fly. Their skeleton is light and hollow, they have a warm body temperature, and they respire through lungs. The heaviest bird is the ostrich, and the fastest-flying bird is the eagle, which can reach speeds of 300 kilometers per hour.

Fish: These are the aquatic animals that hatch from eggs, have fins for swimming, have a body covered in scales, breathe through gills, and have cold blood. Some fish, like the salmon, migrate between saltwater and freshwater.

Amphibians: These are the animals that hatch from eggs, have a tail and gills at birth, and can live both in water and on land. They have lungs and moist skin to breathe, and they are the only vertebrates that start their lives in water.

Birds: Birds are the animals that hatch from eggs, have a bipedal stance, and have the ability to fly. They have a light and hollow skeleton, are warm-blooded, and have a heart with two chambers. The heaviest bird is the ostrich, and the fastest-flying bird is the peregrine falcon, which can reach speeds of over 320 kilometers per hour.

Fish: Fish are the animals that hatch from eggs and live in water. They have a streamlined body, are cold-blooded, and have gills for breathing. Some fish, like the salmon, migrate between freshwater and saltwater.

Reptiles: Reptiles are the animals that hatch from eggs, have a hard shell, and have dry, scaly skin. They are cold-blooded and have lungs to breathe. Some reptiles, like the turtle, have a protective shell. The largest reptile is the green anaconda.

Amphibians: Amphibians are the animals that hatch from eggs, have gills, and can live in both water and on land. They are the only vertebrates that have this ability. When they are born, they have gills and a tail, but as they grow, they develop lungs and lose their tails. The largest amphibian is the African bullfrog.
