Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Approximately 97% of animals on our planet are invertebrates, or animals with no backbone. When we think of “animals,” we often think of vertebrates (animals with backbones) like lions, tigers, bears and, of course, humans. However, given their large numbers and important functions in our ecosystem, learning how to identify them and their roles is critical to ensuring a

sustainable future for our world. In this post, we’ll lay out what makes an animal an invertebrate, how they differ from vertebrates and how they ensure the survival of their vertebrate neighbors.
