Classification Review
List the seven levels of classification
from largest to smallest.

Explain the differences between a
kingdom and a species.
A kingdom is the largest level while species is
the smallest level.
A kingdom is made up of the largest number of
organisms while a species contains the
smallest number.
A kingdom consists of organisms that are not
very similar to each other while a species
consists of organisms that are most similar to
each other.
1. List two characteristics of a kingdom.
LARGEST TAXON
CONSISTS OF ORGANISMS THAT ARE VERY
DIVERSE
2. Why is a species considered the most specific
level? ORGANISMS ARE VERY SIMILAR
3. The scientific name of the clouded leopard is
Neofelis nebulosa . What is the organism’s genus
and species? GENUS  Neofelis
SPECIES  nebulosa
Compare (how they are similar) and contrast (how
they are different) archaea and eubacteria.
They are both unicellular.
They are both prokaryotic.
Archaea live in extreme environments.
Eubacteria are very common.
In which group do all the
organisms belong to the same
kingdom?
1. Dog, mushroom, maple tree
2. Paramecium, ameba, euglena
3. Bacteria, ameba, rose
4. Bacteria, moss, lettuce
The diagrams above show single-celled organisms. In
the past, they were difficult to classify as either
plants or animals. Currently, these organisms are
classified as
1. worms
2. fungi
3. bacteria
4. protists
Acer saccharum is the scientific name
for the sugar maple tree. Acer is the
name of the tree's
1. genus
2. phylum
3. species
4. kingdom
According to the six-kingdom
classification system, which two
groups of organisms are classified
as protists?
1. bryophytes and tracheophytes
2. coelenterates and annelids
3. protozoa and algae
4. bacteria and chordates
In which group do all the organisms
belong to the same kingdom?
1. Yeast, mushroom, maple tree
2. Paramecium, ameba, algae
3. Bacteria, ameba, algae
4. Bacteria, moss, geranium

in which its genetic information is
found in the cytoplasm?
a. Fungi
b. Archaebacteria
c. Protist
d. Plant
1. Identify the protists that are

They absorb nutrients of dead organisms.
3. What are heterotrophic protists called?
Protozoa
4. Identify two heterotrophic protists.
