Classification of animals. All around the world many different types of animals are present. Many animals are quite similar to each other while others are different from others. So animals can be classified based on their similarities. The whole animal kingdom is divided into two main groups. They are Vertebrates and Invertebrates.
Among the most basic criteria by which animals are sorted is whether or not they possess a backbone. This single trait places an animal into one of just two groups: the vertebrates or the invertebrates and represents a fundamental division among all animals alive today as well as those that have long ago disappeared.here are a few groups of chordates that do not possess a backbone (these organisms are not vertebrates and are instead referred to as invertebrate chordates). The animal classes that are vertebrates include: 1  Jawless fish (Class Agnatha).
