14. Animal That Has a Segmented Body

This is a picture of a shrimp, which is an example of an animal with a segmented body. An animal with a segmented body is an animal whose body is made up of a series of repetitive parts, or segments. Each segment is similar to each other, and each set of segments are put together into a bigger group, such as the thorax. A shrimp is an animal with a segmented body because its body is separated into three parts: the head, thorax, and abdomen. A shrimp's abdomen, for example, is also made up of many segments.
