Exploring the Animal Kingdom and Its Diverse Traits

This video from Mumu Math and Science introduces the Animal Kingdom, highlighting its diverse range of organisms, including pets and humans. It explains common traits of animals, such as being eukaryotic, multicellular, and heterotrophic. The video categorizes animals into vertebrates and invertebrates, detailing examples of each. Invertebrates, which lack a backbone, include sponges, jellyfish, worms, mollusks, arthropods, and echinoderms.
