CLASSIFICATION
REVIEW 2
Any characteristic of an
organism that makes it
better able to survive in its
environment.
ADAPTATION
The basic unit of structure
and function for all living
things.
CELLS
All the changes undergone
by living things as they
grow.
DEVELOPMENT
The regulation of lifemaintaining conditions
inside an organism despite
changes in its
environment.
HOMEOSTASIS
The length of time an
organism is expected to
live.
LIFE SPAN
A living thing that exhibits
all the characteristics
necessary for life.
ORGANISM
The reaction of an
organism to a stimulus.
RESPONSE
Anything an organism
responds to, such as,
sound, light, heat,
vibration, odor, hunger, and
so on.
STIMULUS
To group ideas,
information, or objects,
based on their similarities.
CLASSIFY
A group of one or more
species with similar
characteristics.
GENUS
The highest and largest of
the taxonomic categories,
including all other
categories.
KINGDOM
The evolutionary history of
an organism.
PHYLOGENY
The second highest
taxonomic category in the
animal kingdom.
PHYLUM
A group of organisms
whose members
successfully reproduce
among themselves.
SPECIES
The great variety of plants,
animals, and other
organisms on Earth.
DIVERSITY
The science of classifying
and naming organisms.
TAXONOMY
A key containing a detailed
list of traits used to identify
a specific organism.
DICHOTOMOUS
An organism made up of a
single cell.
UNICELLULAR
An organism made up of
two or more cells.
MULTICELLULAR
A type of reproduction in
which a new organism is
produced from one parent.
ASEXUAL
Inherited characteristics
that may help an organism
to survive.
ADAPTATIONS
The group in our
classification system with
the most members.
KINGDOM
The group in our
classification system with
the most similar
organisms.
SPECIES
The kingdom with the most
complex organisms on
earth.
ANIMALS
Trees and flowers belong in
this kingdom.
PLANT
Mushrooms belong in this
kingdom.
FUNGI
Are organisms in the plant
and animal kingdom
unicellular or multicellular?

Are organisms in the
bacteria kingdom(s)
unicellular or multicellular?

Are organisms in the
protist kingdom mostly
unicellular or multicellular?

(cannot see them
physically move).

Remember . . .
classification is always
changing and so will your
grade after this quiz!
