Transcript Classification

Taxonomy
Study of classification
Classifying critters into their specific Kingdom,
Phylum…etc.
Classification
Grouping organisms based on similar
characteristics
ACTIVITY:
•Find an item that belongs to you, and place it on the pile on
the floor.
•As a class, we are going to divide these items up based on
similarities and differences.
Period ___
Personal stuff
HOW DO WE CLASSIFY A NEW
ORGANISM?
The type of cell (prokaryote or eukaryote)
Cell Walls (do the cells have a cell wall)
Cell number (unicellular or multicellular)
Source of food (Autotroph or Heterotroph)
ACTIVITY: Making flashcards
•Take 3 note cards.
•Cut the cards in half
•Use the 6 underlined terms above to write the term on one
side and the definition on the other.
8 Major Groups
Domain
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species
Activity: In your groups, create a pneumonic phrase

Activity: Name that domain…
I will show you a series of pictures.
Your stations job is to figure out the correct
domain.
Record your answers on the whiteboards at your
lab station.
The 6 Kingdoms
Domain: Archaea
Archaeabacteria
Unicellular – Contains
only 1 cell
Prokaryotes – lack a
nucleus
Wacky bacteria – found
in the most extreme
places
Oldest of all bacteria
The 6 Kingdoms
Domain: Bacteria
CYANOBACTERIA
– blue green algae
BACTERIA
Eubacteria (Monerans)
Unicellular – Contains
only 1 cell
Prokaryotes – lack a
nucleus
Autotrophs – produce
their own food
Heterotrophs – Cannot
make their own food
The 6 Kingdoms
Domain: Eukarya
Protista
Unicellular
Eukaryotes – Contains
a nucleus
Similar to plants, but
move like animals
Both Autotroph and
Heterotroph
The 6 Kingdoms
Domain: Eukarya
AppleMushrooms
leaf Rust Fungus
Yeast Cells
Fungi
Multicellular – Contains
many cells
Heterotrophs
Includes mushrooms,
molds, mildews
The 6 Kingdoms
Domain: Eukarya
Plantae
Multicellular
Autotrophs
Specialized tissues
MOSS
ALGAE
FERNS
FLOWERING PLANTS
The 6 Kingdoms
Domain: Eukarya
Animalia
Multicellular
Heterotrophs
Have specialized tissues
Most have organs and
organ systems
Activity: Name that KINGDOM
I will show you pictures of organisms
You will write down the Kingdom you believe it
is classified in
Carolus Linnaeus
Swedish scientist that developed the system of
classification
Binomial nomenclature
Bi = 2 ; nomenclature = name : 2 Names
System of classification where each organism is
given 2 names
A Genus name and a species name
Both names are printed in italics
The Genus name is capitalized and the
species is lower case
Handwritten these names are underlined
Practice
Which of the organisms above is the most
closely related?
How many classification groups do the dog and
the fur seal have in common?
Which of the organisms can make their own
food?
True or False: Organisms in Kingdom Animalia
are Heterotrophs.
