  1. Bioclassification aka: “classification”

  2. Why classify? What is the name of this animal?

  3. Depending where you live… You might call this animal a: Puma Lion Panther Cougar

  4. Binomial Nomenclature by: Carlous Linnaeus System where each species is assigned a two-part scientific name. * the name is Latin & italicized ~Use creature’s characteristics & dichotomus key to determine name * the first word is capitalized

  5. common name: mule deer Latin name: Odocoileus hemionus Binomial Nomenclature Example

  6. Linnaeus’ Classification System • Includes 8 levels of taxonmy • taxonomy = specific group based on characteristics • Characteristics developed over time cladograms. • Order: largest taxaindividual organism: Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species

  7. Reminder of what CLADOGRAM looks like:

  8. Domains (Most-inclusive taxonomic category. Larger than a kingdom) Archaea Bacteria Corresponds to Kingdom Archae (really old bacteria Domain) Eubacteria Corresponds to Kingdom Eubacteria (bacteria Domain) Eukarya Composed of protists, fungus, plants & animals (our Domain!)

  9. Kingdoms (six) Archae Bacteria Protista Fungi (saprocytes) Plantae Animalia

  10. Review: Domains & Kingdoms Archaea Bacteria Domain Archaea Kingdom Eubacteria Domain Bacteria Kingdom Eukarya Domain Protists Kingdom Fungi Kingdom Plantae Kingdom Animalia Kingdom

  11. Archaea Bacteria Domain v. Eubacteria Domain

  12. Kingdom Bacteria v. Kingdom Archae BACTERIA ARCHAE

  13. Eukarya Domain (everyone has a NUCLEUS!) Protista Kingdom Fungi Kingdom Plantae Kingdom Animalia Kingdom

  14. Kingdom Protista Has Nucleus = Eukarya Live in WATERMulticellular “protozoans” = animal-like Heterotrophs

  15. Kingdom Fungi Has NUCLEUS = Eukaryote CELL WALLS!!! 2+ cells HETEROTROPHS stationary decomposers sex

  16. Kingdom Plantae NUCLEUS = Eukaryote CELL WALLS AUTOROPHS (photosynthesis) stationary 2+ cells sex

  17. Kingdom Fungi v.Kingdom Plantae PLANTS FUNGI

  18. Kingdom Animalia Has NUCLEUS = Eukaryote heterotrophs 2+ cells mobile sex

  19. Kingdom Animalia v.Kingdom Plantae ANIMALS PLANTS

  20. FUNGI PROTISTA PLANTS ARCHAE ANIMALS BACTERIA

  21. Know all that info about Domains & Kingdoms, right?

  22. A little overwhelming, but managible?

  23. Remember the otherSIX the taxa? . . .

  24. Linnaeus’ Classification System • Includes 8 levels of taxonmy • taxonomy = specific group based on characteristics • Characteristics developed over time cladograms. • Order: largest taxaindividual organism: Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species

  25. All you need to know: Species (the last group) = most exclusive taxon (it’s the smallest class)
