What is the text structure of this passage?

Bats and birds both have wings. Yet, bats are quite different from birds. Bats are flying mammals. Bats do not have beaks and do not lay eggs. Most bats have teeth which help them when eating. They are also active at nighttime. Birds, on the other hand, are feathered, winged animals. They have beaks, with no teeth, and they lay eggs. Birds are active during the day. Both animals help the environment with seed dispersal and pollination
