Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Tetrapod is the class of vertebrates which contains four limbed animals. This class includes amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. The ancestral tetrapods were primarily aquatic. In the modern era amphibians are semiaquatic, which means they spent first stage of life as fishes and in second stage they become partly terrestrial and partly aquatic.

ILLUSTRATE THIS/
Mollusks are divided into three classes: Class Cephaloda (squids), Class Gastropoda (snails), Class Bivalvia (clams and oysters)
Cephalopods have a few orders, one of which is order octopoda ( octopus) and the other is order teuthida ( squids)
the scientific name for the common octopus is octopus vulgaris
the scientific name for the common squid is loligo vulgaris
