Are ducks vertebrates or invertebrates

Answer 1

No, ducks are classified as birds due to the presence of feathers, being warm-blooded and having hollow bones that are adaptations for flight. Amphibians do not have feathers, are cold-blooded and do not have hollow bones.

Answer 2

A duck as with all other birds are vertebrates. They have an internal skeleton and a backbone. Because ducks have VERTEBRAE (backbones), they are VERTEBRATES.

Answer 3

Ducks are vertebrates. Vertebrates are animals with a backbone or spinal column. Ducks, like all birds, have a well-developed vertebral column that supports their body structure and allows for movement. In contrast, invertebrates do not have a backbone or spinal column.

Answer 4

A mammal is a warmblooded animal with hair, that carries their young inside, gives birth to live babies, and has mammary glands, with which they nurse their babies.

A duck-billed platypus is mammal that is an exception to most of the rules: Their young are born inside a leathery-like sac that looks like an egg. They have mammary glands that leak milk through the hair and the baby laps it up. They also have webbed feet, and hair that looks like feathers in the water.

However, a duck is a bird that has no mammary glands, no hair, and gives birth to their young from eggs. No ducks are mammals.
