Cats and dogs are distinctly classified based on their physical features such as their size, shape, color, and fur, as well as their behavioral traits and adaptations. Dogs are more social and energetic than cats and are commonly used for hunting, herding, and protection, whereas cats are more independent and are typically kept as household pets.

Having an exoskeleton provides a protective outer layer and attachment point for muscles and organs, but it also limits growth and movement due to its rigid structure, while having a backbone provides internal support and flexibility, but requires more energy and resources to maintain and repair.
