It seems like you're referring to a specific interactive assignment or educational software that involves exploring different species, potentially highlighting their characteristics. Since I can't interact with software or play games, I can, however, provide information about the four species you've mentioned in terms of amniote status, vertebrate classification, and bilateral symmetry.
Dog
- Amniote: Yes, dogs are amniotes. They are mammals that lay eggs within the body (not in external environments), ensuring the embryo is protected and nourished.
- Vertebrate: Yes, dogs are vertebrates as they possess a backbone or spinal column.
- Bilateral Symmetry: Yes, dogs exhibit bilateral symmetry, meaning their body can be divided into two mirror-image halves.
Stick Insect
- Amniote: No, stick insects are not amniotes. They are insects and lay eggs in the environment.
- Vertebrate: No, stick insects are invertebrates; they do not have a backbone.
- Bilateral Symmetry: Yes, stick insects display bilateral symmetry.
Kingsnake
- Amniote: Yes, kingsnakes are amniotes. They are reptiles that lay eggs and develop their young inside eggs with protective shells.
- Vertebrate: Yes, kingsnakes are vertebrates.
- Bilateral Symmetry: Yes, kingsnakes show bilateral symmetry.
Goldfish
- Amniote: No, goldfish are not amniotes; they are fish that lay eggs in water.
- Vertebrate: Yes, goldfish are vertebrates.
- Bilateral Symmetry: Yes, goldfish also exhibit bilateral symmetry.
If you need more detailed information about any of these species, just let me know!
