    Vertebrates:

    1) They've got a backbone/spine.

    2) Are probably more complex organisms: fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals (in that order.)

    3) Movement is based on an internal skeleton.

    4) Wide range of sizes and shapes.

    5) K-selected population

    Invertebrates:

    1) No backbone.

    2) Less complex: sponges, worms, mollusks (e. g. snails), crustaceans (e. i. crabs.) Insects.

    3) Movement is not based on an internal skeleton, or some don't move at all.

    4) Must be small in size to fulfill their needs for air and nutrients because systems are simpler.

    5) R-selected population
