How are animals classified based on domestication?

Animals are living organisms with specialized senses, organs, and nervous systems that allow them to respond rapidly to their environment. They can be classified into domestic, semi-domesticated, and non-domestic categories.

Domestic animals are those that have been selectively bred over generations by humans. They rely on humans for food, shelter, and protection.

Semi-domesticated animals are those that have some level of dependency on humans but can also survive in the wild to some extent. They may exhibit behaviors of both wild and domesticated animals.

Non-domestic animals, on the other hand, are wild animals that have not been domesticated. They retain their natural instincts and behaviors and may pose a threat to humans due to their size, hostility, or other factors.

Animals are eukaryotic, multicellular organisms classified in the kingdom Animalia. They ingest organic material, carry out aerobic respiration, have locomotion, and reproduce sexually.

Understanding the classifications of animals helps us appreciate the diversity of life on our planet and the different ways in which animals interact with their environments.
