Animals that lack a backbone are referred to as invertebrates while those with a backbone are called vertebrates. Examples of invertebrates include; 'Arthropods' such as insects and crustaceans and 'Protozoa'.
Invertebrates are animals which lack a backbone so by definition they are animals.Invertebrate is a classification in animals, Invertebrate is a creature without a backbone such as a Slug or snail, vertebrate is like us or any other mammal or reptile, and so on.

No, clams do not have a backbone. They are part of the invertebrate group of animals, which means they lack a spinal column. Clams have a soft body enclosed in a shell for protection.
The three main types of animals are vertebrates (animals with a backbone), invertebrates (animals without a backbone), and mammals (animals that have hair or fur, produce milk for their young, and give birth to live young).
Other animals that do not have a backbone include arthropods (such as insects and spiders), mollusks (such as octopuses and snails), and cnidarians (such as jellyfish and coral). These animals have different types of support structures instead of a rigid backbone.
No, crayfish are invertebrate animals, they do, however have an exoskeleton which makes up for the lack of a backbone.
Invertebrates, such as insects, worms, and jellyfish, do not have a backbone. They belong to the animal kingdom and lack a vertebral column that is characteristic of vertebrates like mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish.
No, the phylum Chordata includes both vertebrate and invertebrate animals. Vertebrates are a subphylum within Chordata and have a backbone or spinal column, whereas invertebrate chordates, like tunicates and lancelets, lack a backbone.
of course! most animals have a backbone.
ALL animals that have a backbone are "vertebrates". ALL animals without a backbone are "invertebrates". Man is an animal with a backbone.
a backbone
No. Grasshoppers are insects, which are invertebrates, meaning they lack a backbone.
