Animals are a diverse group of living organisms that inhabit nearly every corner of the Earth. Ranging from microscopic insects to massive whales, animals are distinguished by their ability to move voluntarily, consume organic material for energy, and exhibit complex behaviors and sensory responses. They are classified into various groups, including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates, each with unique characteristics and adaptations that enable them to thrive in their environments. Animals play vital roles in ecosystems as predators, prey, and pollinators, contributing to the balance and health of natural habitats. They are also integral to human life, providing companionship, labor, and resources such as food, clothing, and medicine.
