 PREFACE
My special thanks to all my science’s teacher especially Puan Ashekin who have
given me the encouragement and assistance to complete this project. Also to my
mother and father who have always been a source of inspiration. Also not to forget to
all my friends for all assistance and aid that they had given to me to complete this
project.
ANIMAL A
Lions are mammal, they breathe with their lungs. They live on land and in groups,
which are called prides. Prides are family units that may include up to three males, a
dozen or so females, and their young. Their bodies covered with fur and they use
sharp nails and jaws to hunt prey. Lions use internal fertilization for reproduction. The
female lions usually feed the cubs with milk from the mammary glands. Lions are
also a carnivore. Female lions are the pride’s primary hunters, they often work
together to prey upon other animals. After the hunt, the group effort often degenerates
to squabbling over the sharing of the kill. Like most of the predators, lion used
stereoscopic vision to determine the position of their prey. Lions are also a vertebrates
animal and their support system are endoskeleton. They are four-legs and warm-
blooded animal.
ANIMAL B
Frogs are amphibian, they breathe with their skin and lungs. They live both in water
and land. Unlike most frogs, poison dart frogs are active during the day and often
exhibit brightly-colored bodies. Generally, this species can be found in tropical
rainforests and they tend to live on or close to the ground, as well as in trees as much
as 10 meters from the ground. Poison dart frogs are also a carnivore; they use their
sticky tongue to trap their prey. Like most of the predators, poison dart frogs used
stereoscopic vision to determine the position of their prey and they used external
fertilization for reproduction. This frog’s support system is endoskeleton. They are
also four-legs and cold-blooded animal.
ANIMAL C
Killer whales are mammal, they breathe with their lungs. They lives in the sea and
they can be found in all the world's oceans, from the frigid Arctic and Antarctic
regions to warm, tropical seas. Killer whales are aquatic vertebrates and their support
systems are endoskeleton. Their body weight is supported by water buoyancy and
they have smaller and lighter endoskeletons than land vertebrates. Killer whales are
also a carnivore; they use sharp jaws to hunt prey. Unlike most of the predators, this
dolphin family use monocular vision to detect prey in any angle. Killer whales use
internal fertilization for reproduction and their calves nurse for up to two years but
will start to take solid food at about twelve months.
ANIMAL D
Mantises are an order of insects that worldwide in temperate and tropical habitats.
They are exclusively predatory and prey on other animals. However, the insects will
also eat others of their own kind. The majority of mantises are ambush predators,
waiting for prey to stray too near. The mantis then lashes out at remarkable speed.
Their compound eyes have a large binocular field of vision, it boost them with a great
range of vision. Mantises are also invertebrate animals; they used exoskeletons as
their support system and they had 3 pairs of legs. The mantises’ reproduction methods
are internal fertilization and usually the females will eat her mate just after—or even
during—mating. Yet this behavior seems not to deter males from reproduction.
6)-a) compare the physical characteristics of animal A and B and state 2 similarities
between them.

- Both animal A and B used stereoscopic vision and both animal A and B are carnivores.

6)-b) compare the physical characteristics of animal C and D and state 2 similarities
between them.

- Both animal C and D used internal fertilization and both animal C and D are carnivores.

6)-c) compare the physical characteristics of animal A and B and state 2 differences
between them.

- Animal A live in land while animal B lives both land and water.
- Animal B laid egg while animal A gives birth.

6)-d) compare the physical characteristics of animal C and D and state 2 differences
between them.

- Animal C has legs while animal D doesn’t have legs.

- Animal C is invertebrate animals while animal D is vertebrate animals.
e) Classify completely the 4 animals that you have into 2 groups based on a common
physical characteristic using the dichotomous method.

CONTENTS
 OBJECTIVES

1) To classify various animals based on their common features.

2) To study the biodiversity of animals.
3) To know more about animals that our god had crated.
