  2. Know What do you know about the Classification System? “I don’t know anything.” is not an acceptable answer. Use complete sentences. Evidence After listening to the PowerPoint lecture, come back here and list evidence to explain why your answer to the above question is or is not a good answer. You may also use other outside sources to help you respond. Page #

  3. Classification System classification Information Clarifying ?s - grouping things based on their similarities Why? Biologists classify because it is easier to study organisms. taxonomy - scientific study of how living things are classified Swedish botanist, physician, and zoologist who created a biological naming system consisting of two Latin names Carolus Linnaeus binomial nomenclature - It is a two part scientific name made up of Latin words - the first word being the Genus and the second being the species. - first part of the name - the group (always capitalized) Genus Example: The group the house cat belongs to is Felis species - second part of the name - divides the group or genus A species is also a group of closely related organisms that can produce fertile offspring. Example: The species of the house cat is domesticus FYI: Cats belong to the family felidae (Families have a female Latin ending.) House cat = Felis domesticus, Lion = Panthera leo, Tiger = Panthera tigris, Mountain lion = Puma concolor, Cheetah = Acinonyx jubatus, Bobcat = Lynx rufus, Seven levels of classification Organisms are grouped by characteristics, not necessarily by where they live.

  4. Classification System Information Clarifying ?s Classification starts with the largest characteristics and works down to the species. Kingdom - phylum - class - order - family - Genus - species King Phillip came over for good soup. Six kingdoms 1. archaebacteria 2. eubacteria 3. protists 4. fungi 5. plants 6. animals unicellular - Organism is only one cell. multicellular - Organism is made up of many cells. prokaryote - Organism without nucleus eukaryote - Organism with nucleus heterotroph - Organism can’t make its own food. Example: eats other organisms autotroph - Organism makes its own food using light or chemicals Two ways photosynthesis - Plants make sugar with carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight. Example: CO2 + H2O + sunlight = C6H12O6 (sugar) chemosynthesis - Bacteria make sugar with carbon dioxide, water, and hydrogen or methane. Example: CO2 + H2O + hydrogen or methane = C6H12O6 (sugar) Summary: Page #
