| 1 | An animal is a living organism that cannot make its own food and usually moves from place to place. |
| 2 | All animals are multicellular organisms. |
| 3 | Animals need food, water, air, and space; any two are acceptable. |
| 4 | Vertebrates have a backbone, and invertebrates do not. |
| 5 | A frog is a vertebrate because it has a backbone. |
| 6 | The skeleton supports the body, protects organs, and helps the animal move. |
| 7 | Mammals have hair or fur and produce milk for their young, while reptiles have dry scales and do not produce milk. |
| 8 | Birds have lightweight bodies, wings, and hollow bones that help them fly. |
| 9 | An adaptation is a trait or behavior that helps an animal survive in its environment. |
| 10 | A duck’s webbed feet are a structural adaptation that help it swim better. |
| 11 | Migration is a behavioral adaptation that helps animals find food or warmer climates. |
| 12 | A predator hunts and eats other animals, while prey is the animal being hunted. |
| 13 | Camouflage helps an animal blend into its surroundings so it can avoid predators or catch prey. |
| 14 | Animals compete because resources are limited and many animals need the same resources to survive. |
| 15 | An animal’s habitat can affect its body features; for example, polar bears have thick fur and fat to stay warm in cold habitats. |
| 16 | An endangered species is a species with very low numbers that is at risk of becoming extinct. |
| 17 | Habitat loss can reduce food, shelter, and breeding space, causing populations to decline. |
| 18 | A fish may have gills to breathe in water, while a land animal such as a rabbit may have lungs to breathe air. |
| 19 | Biodiversity helps ecosystems stay stable because different animals fill different roles and support food webs. |
| 20 | Animals that eat insects may have less food, so their populations could decrease or move away because their food source is reduced. |
