Animals are multicellular eukaryotic organisms in the biological kingdom of Animalia. (Animals start with U) With few exceptions, animals consume organic material, breathe oxygen, can move, can reproduce sexually, and go through an onto genetic stage in which their body consists of a hollow sphere of cells, the blastula, during embryonic development.
Over 1.5 million living animal species have been described—of which around 1 million are insects—but we have estimated there are over 7 million animal species in total.
In this article, we will list down some animals start with U.
