Animals

Animals are a major set of organisms, classified as the empire Metazoa. In common they are multicultural, receptive to their surroundings, and afford for by overriding other organisms or parts of them. Their body plan becomes fixed when they enlarge, commonly early on in their growth as embryos, in spite of the fact that some feel a process of metamorphosis later on.

The word "animal" draws closer from the Latin word animal, of which Metazoa is the plural, and is resulting from anima, sense very significant breath or soul. In every day colloquial usage, the word often refers to non-human animals. The biological meaning of the word refers to every members of the empire Animalia. As a result, as the word "animal" is used in a biological condition, humans are included.
