CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- ABOUT HOW MANY LIVING THINGS EXIST ON EARTH?
- 1.5 MILLION KNOWN ORGANISMS
- THOUSANDS MORE IDENTIFIED EACH YEAR
- ABOUT 10 MILLION DIFFERENT ORGANISMS BELIEVED TO EXIST ON EARTH
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- WITH SO MANY DIFFERENT LIVING THINGS, IT IS ESSENTIAL FOR SCIENTISTS TO ORGANIZE THEM TO MAKE IT EASIER TO SHARE, AND STUDY, INFORMATION ABOUT LIVING THINGS
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- THE BRANCH OF BIOLOGY THAT DEALS WITH CLASSIFICATION (GROUPING) AND NAMING LIVING THINGS IS CALLED…
- TAXONOMY
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- WHY ORGANIZE??
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- EARLY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- MODERN CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM BASED UPON THE WORK OF CAROLUS LINNAEUS
- ISN’T HE A HOTTIE?!?!?
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- IF YOU WERE TO GROUP THINGS TOGETHER, WHAT WOULD YOU USE?
- LINNAEUS GROUPED THINGS BASED ON PHYSICAL(STRUCTURAL) SIMILARITY
- DIFFERENT LEVELS OF GROUPS WERE CREATED TO DEMONSTRATE VARIOUS LEVELS OF SIMILARITY
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- TAXONOMIC CATEGORIES
- KINGSPLAYCHESSONFLATGLASSSQUARES
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- A BONUS OF THIS CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM IS THAT IT LED TO A SIMPLE METHOD FOR NOMENCLATURE = “NAMING SYSTEM”
- BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE
- TWO NAME NAMING SYSTEM
- TWO NAMES COME FROM THE GENUS AND SPECIES GROUPS OF CLASSIFICATION
- SCIENTIFIC NAME
- WHY IS THIS SO IMPORTANT??
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- WHAT MAKES LIVING THINGS THE SAME SPECIES?
- SPECIES
- A POPULATION OF ORGANISMS THAT IS ABLE TO REPRODUCE WITH EACH OTHER AND PRODUCE FERTILE OFFSPRING
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- MODERN TAXONOMICAL PRINCIPLES
- STRUCTURAL INFORMATION
- BIOCHEMICAL INFORMATION
- CYTOLOGICAL INFORMATION
- EMBRYOLOGICAL INFORMATION
- BEHAVIORAL INFORMATION
- FOSSIL INFORMATION
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- MAJOR TAXONOMICAL GROUPS
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- KINGDOM – MONERA
- PROKARYOTES
- ARCHAEBACTERIA VS.EUBACTERIA
- KINGDOM – PROTISTA
- EUKARYOTE
- AMEBA
- PARAMECIUM
- EUGLENA
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- KINGDOM – FUNGI
- EUKARYOTES
- HETEROTROPH
- CELL WALL
- KINGDOM – PLANTS
- EUKARYOTES
- AUTOTROPH
- CELL WALL
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- KINGDOM – ANIMALS
- EUKARYOTES
- HETEROTROPH
- REPRESENTATIVEORGANISMS
- HYDRA
- EARTHWORM
- GRASSHOPPER
- HUMAN
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- WITH GROUPS MADE, SCIENTISTS USE TAXONOMIC KEYS TO CLASSIFY ORGANISMS
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- CLASSIFICATION / GROUPING ALLOWS US TO ORGANIZE HOW WE STUDY BIOLOGY
- LIFE’SHIERARCHY
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING THINGS
- LIFE’S HIERARCHYGIVES US A PLACETO START DISCUSSINGTHE SPECIFICSOF HOW LIFE WORKS…SO LET’S GET TO IT!!!
