Not all animals have backbones. Actually most animals on earth are invertabrates.
What do you feed a daddy long legs spider?
The Daddy Long Legs is not a spider but a fly, more correctly known as a crane fly. Adult crane flies feed on nectar or they do not feed at all. Once they become adults, most crane fly species exist as adults only to mate and die.
Unless of course you are referring to the cellar spider which is also known as the daddy long legs spider which traps and eats insects like most other spiders.

Is a woodpecker a vertebrate or an invertebrate?
Yes, as are all bird species.
Woodpeckers have spines, so are vertebrates.
Invertebrates have a hard outer shell, called an exoskeleton. Muscles are attached to the inside of the exoskeleton, and contraction of these flexes the joints.
It depends on what animal it is. A jellyfish, for instance, moves by swaying its body back and forth. A caterpillar uses its small legs to move.
I hope this helped... :D

What types of vertebrate the sugar glider?
A sugar glider is a small, nocturnal marsupial of the possum family (not opossums) about 16cm-21cm in length, and native to Australia, as well as some islands of Indonesia and New Guinea.
Sugar gliders live about 12-15 years in captivity, and 1-6 years in the wild, due to predation by other animals. They have black-tipped tails, a black line down their back, (ending with an arrow on the head) and have 1-3 joeys at a time. They come in a variety of colors, including albino (very rare), cinnamon, red-brown and, most commonly, grey.
Like other gliders, sugar gliders are unique in that they have a membrane of skin - patagia-membrane - which stretches from the fifth "finger" of each hand to the first toe of each foot, which enables them to glide between treetops. They do not fly, but are capable of gliding up to 100m.
