Let’s go step by step to sort the animals correctly.

We have two boxes:
- Animals Living on Land → These are animals that live mostly or entirely on land (forests, grasslands, savannas, etc.)
- Animals Living in Water → These are animals that live in oceans, seas, rivers — they swim and breathe underwater or at the surface but need water to survive.

Now let’s look at each animal one by one:

1. Dog – Lives with humans on land. Land
2. Horse – Runs on fields and farms. Land
3. Jellyfish – Floats in ocean water. Not land → Water
4. Dolphin – Swims in oceans. Not land → Water
5. Fish (silver fish) – Clearly lives in water. Water
6. Whale – Huge sea mammal. Lives in ocean. Water
7. Lion – King of the jungle/savanna. Land
8. Seahorse – Tiny sea creature, swims in water. Water
9. Elephant – Walks on land, even though it likes water, it doesn’t live *in* water. Land
10. Zebra – Runs on African plains. Land

So now we group them:

Animals Living on Land:
- Dog
- Horse
- Lion
- Elephant
- Zebra

Animals Living in Water:
- Jellyfish
- Dolphin
- Fish
- Whale
- Seahorse

Double-check: All 10 animals are placed. No duplicates. Each fits its habitat.

Final Answer:
Animals Living on Land: Dog, Horse, Lion, Elephant, Zebra
Animals Living in Water: Jellyfish, Dolphin, Fish, Whale, Seahorse
