A fish’s spine allows it to bend its body from side to side so it can swim smoothly. Snakes are incredibly bendy thanks to many identical vertebrae forming their long spines. Most animals have a backbone and are called “vertebrates”. Animals with no spine, like spiders and bugs, are called “invertebrates”.
