    The document compares the characteristics of five vertebrate classes: fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. It outlines key distinguishing features such as body covering, movement, reproduction, sense organs, temperature regulation, and other physiological details. Fish have scales and fins, lay jelly-covered eggs, breathe through gills, and are cold-blooded. Amphibians have moist skin, often lay eggs in water but breathe through lungs on land, and are cold-blooded.
