Birds are the second largest group of invertebrates, with approximately 10,000 species. They are unique in that they have feathers, lay eggs, have bills instead of teeth, and hollow bones that make flight possible. While not all birds can fly, their respiratory and digestive systems are highly adapted for flight. Birds communicate through song, calls, and behaviors, and most species mate monogamously during one or more breeding seasons. Parrots are found in warm climates and can live between 25-100 years, with cockatoos and macaws on the longer end. Many birds like parrots mimic human speech through a structure in their throat, but they do not truly talk - they merely mimic common sounds.

The duck-billed platypus is a semiaquatic egg-laying mammal found in eastern Australia and Tasmania. It has a duck-like bill, webbed feet, a flat tail, and produces venom from ankle spurs. The platypus lays eggs and feeds its young milk through patches of skin. It lives in burrows near freshwater lakes and rivers, feeding on aquatic invertebrates and larvae. Though once hunted, the platypus is now a protected species.Birds features

1. Birds evolved from reptiles and are considered "glorified reptiles" as they have evolved to have higher metabolic rates making them warm-blooded, the ability to fly through wing development, and other advanced features compared to reptiles.
2. The fossil Archaeopteryx from the Jurassic period shows traits of both birds and their reptilian ancestors, providing evidence that birds evolved from reptiles.
3. Comparative anatomy and other evidence indicates birds evolved from theropod dinosaurs, sharing many skeletal features, though some argue an earlier reptile group was the ancestor. Modern bird orders emerged in the Tertiary period around 60 million years ago.Phylum Arthropoda

Pigeons are stout, seed-eating birds with short legs and grey/white plumage. Domestic pigeons were derived from rock doves, which were among the first birds domesticated by humans as early as 10,000 years ago. Pigeons occupy a wide variety of habitats globally and have contributed importantly to humanity through their use as military messengers. They are social birds that require gentle handling and live in flocks for protection. Common health issues for pigeons include various parasites, bacteria, and viruses.Class Reptilia

Reptiles are tetrapod vertebrates that first began living on land. They are cold-blooded with scaly skin and lay eggs on land. Their skin is covered in scales, scutes, or bony plates instead of hair or fur. They have lungs with a large surface area, a three-chambered heart (except crocodiles), and shed their skin through moulting.Classification of non chordata (invetebrate)

Bird migration is a regular, two-way movement of birds between breeding and wintering regions to take advantage of favorable conditions, with different types including latitudinal, longitudinal, and altitudinal movements. Migration is driven by internal biological clocks and environmental factors, and allows birds to access food, breeding grounds, and escape harsh weather, though it also carries risks of death from storms, predators, or human activities.Chordates and vertebrates

Cetaceans are mammals that evolved from land mammals and adapted to life in the ocean. They include whales, dolphins, and porpoises. Cetaceans have streamlined bodies for swimming, breathe air through blowholes, and use echolocation and vocalizations to communicate. While baleen whales filter feed using baleen plates, toothed whales have teeth adapted for catching prey which they swallow whole. Dolphins and porpoises are considered small toothed whales that typically travel in pods.Respiration system in insects
Respiration system in insectsZaid Asif
?
Insects breathe through a respiratory system consisting of spiracles, trachea, tracheoles, and air sacs. Air enters through openings called spiracles and travels through a network of tubes called trachea. The trachea branch into finer tracheoles where gas exchange occurs. Air sacs store oxygen and provide buoyancy. The respiratory system delivers oxygen to cells and removes carbon dioxide as a waste product, but is separate from the circulatory system.Exocoetus
Exocoetusdikshuuu

Flying fish have unusually large pectoral fins and streamlined bodies that allow them to glide through the air over water to escape predators. They live in tropical and subtropical oceans around the world. When threatened, they can propel themselves out of the water by rapidly flapping their tails and gliding with extended fins for distances up to 50 meters. Their ability to fly enables them to evade predators and return safely back to the sea.Arthropods - An Introduction

The home provides a place of residence, refuge, and comfort. However, modern changes like new inventions, ideas, and economic shifts have affected home life, with more mothers working and families being mobile. Some functions of the home are now taken over by other social agencies. This has limited the common interests within homes. While some see the breakdown of the family as inevitable, others see instability in modern homes as a byproduct of evolving new patterns of human relationships, which can threaten home stability.

The document provides information about two parasites: Toxoplasma gondii and Enterobius vermicularis. Both are classified as protists and parasites that derive nutrition from their hosts. While T. gondii infects many warm-blooded animals and causes the disease toxoplasmosis, E. vermicularis is commonly known as the pinworm and specifically infects humans, causing enterobiasis. A key difference is that T. gondii infects various tissues throughout the body, while E. vermicularis infects the gastrointestinal tract.Animal Classification

Amphibians are born in water and breathe through gills but develop lungs on land. Birds have feathers, lay eggs, and have wings that allow most but not all to fly. Fish live in water and have gills, scales and fins. Arthropods include insects, spiders and crustaceans which have more than four jointed legs. Mammals are warm-blooded animals that bear live young and produce milk to feed their young. Reptiles are cold-blooded with scaly skin and include snakes, lizards, crocodiles and turtles.Vertebrates

Vertebrates can be classified into five categories: birds, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, and mammals. Birds are warm-blooded creatures that lay eggs and have feathers and wings to fly. Fishes live in water and have fins and gills. Amphibians live both on land and in water, starting as eggs with gills. Reptiles are covered in dry scales, some lay eggs while others give live birth. Mammals are warm-blooded, have hair or fur, and most give live birth.Classification of Mammals

Many birds perform dances, especially in the spring, to attract mates. Ostriches are the only birds that dance for fun rather than mating. Their early morning dances involve twirling in circles on their tiptoes with wings outstretched, and soon the whole group joins in the joyful display. Parrots are a diverse order of over 350 bird species found worldwide in warm climates. Though varied, they share curved beaks and four-toed feet. Pigeons are familiar city birds that have been bred in many colors over centuries. Ostriches are the world's largest birds and strong runners, able to sprint over 40 mph, that live in herds on the African savanna and deserts.

Carcass beetles, also known as hide beetles, are scavengers that feed on the dry remains of dead animals. They have a bumpy, warty appearance and can hide by covering themselves with dirt. Carcass beetles are found worldwide and include over 300 species. They are important in forensic investigations, as their presence on burned bodies can help estimate time of death. Rove beetles and carrion beetles also assist in estimating the post-mortem interval based on their life cycles and presence at carcasses at different stages of decomposition. Both larvae and adults of these beetle families feed on carrion and maggots.Diptera (Flies).pptx

Introduction birds
- 1. Introduction Birds It is thought that there are approximately 10.000 species of birds which makes them the second biggest group of invertebrates. Birds are the only group of animals to possess feathers, they lay eggs, have bills instead of teeth, a strong four chambered heart and their skeleton is made of hollow bones. The birds¡¯ forelegs have evolved into wings which enable them to fly, though not all birds can fly. Their unique respiratory and digestive systems are highly adapted for flight. Some species like the parrots are among the most intelligent animals. Birds are social animals and use song, call notes and behavior to communicate with each other. An estimated 90% of all bird species are monogamous during one or more breeding seasons, some mate for life. Eggs are usually laid in a nest and are incubated by the parents. Breeding seasons are relatively long. Parrots are found mostly in warm and tropical regions. There are over 350 parrot species divided in two families: the Psittacidae or true parrots and the Cacatuidae or cockatoos. Most parrots are green with other bright colors, some species are multicolored. They exhibit little or no sexual dimorphism. Regarding their life span, parrots can live between 25 and 50 years but Amazons and Cockatoos may live 70 years and Macaws up to 100 years. Do they talk? Many species of birds mimic the human voice or other sounds. A structure in their throats is thought to be the source of the sounds they make. Birds don¡¯t properly talk; they merely mimic sounds that occur regularly in their environment. Some African Greys boast vocabularies of up to 500 words.
