False.
Kingdom Animalia includes both vertebrate organisms and invertebrate organisms. Vertebrate organisms are classified as organisms that have a backbone or a spinal cord, which supports their overall movement. These mainly consist of mammals, reptiles, birds, amphibians and fishes. An invertebrate organism, on the other hand, are an organism that does not have a backbone, these organisms include insects. Thus, despite the presence and lack of backbone, these organisms are still considered in one kingdom, animalia.

False
