Biodiversity • Ecologists have classified over 2 million species • Many more to be discovered • Taxonomy: The science of describing, naming, and classifying organisms into a taxonomic system • Taxon: Any particular group within a taxonomic system
Levels Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species Specificity

Classifying humans • Domain: Eukarya • Kingdom: Anamalia • Phylum: chordata • Class: Mamalia • Order: Primates Family: Hominidae Genus: Homo Species: Sapien
Three Domains • Created based on rRNA Evidence • Three Domains include six Kingdoms • Domain Bacteria (Prokaryotes) • Domain Archaea (Prokaryotes) • Domain Eukarya (Eukaryotes)
KINGDOM EUBACTERIA • unicellular prokaryotes • true bacteria
KINGDOM ARCHEABACTERIA • unicellular prokaryotes • chemosynthetic • extremophiles
KINGDOM PROTISTA • Heterotrophic and autotrophic eukaryotes • unicellular or multicellular • Ex. kelp
KINGDOM FUNGI • Heterotrophic eukaryotes • Absorb nutrients from surroundings • Ex. Yeast, mold, mushrooms, athlete’s foot
Kingdom Plantae • Multicellular • Eukaryotes • Autotrophic by photosynthesis • Ex. Mosses, ferns, conifers, flowering plants
KINGDOM ANIMALIA • Eukaryotic • All multicellular • Heterotrophic
Binomial Nomenclature • How scientists name species • Invented by Carolus Linnaeus
Binomial Nomenclature • How scientists name species • Invented by Carolus Linnaeus • Scientific (species) Name • Genus Name + species name • Written in italics • Genus is always capitalized • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYL_8gv7RiE
Value • Clarity • Binomial names avoid confusion created when using common names to refer to a species. • Example: In English-speaking parts of Europe, the bird called a "robin" is Erithacus rubecula. In English-speaking North America, a "robin" is Turdus migratorius.

SYSTEMATICS • The goal is to classify organisms in terms of their natural relationships • Uses similarities in appearance, embryos, chromosomes, proteins, and molecular molecules (DNA & RNA) • Two types: phylogenetics and cladistics
PHYLOGENETICS • Phylogenetics: the analysis of the evolutionary or ancestral relationships among taxa • Based on common ancestors Phylogenetic Tree
Phylogenetic Trees • Uses chromosomes and molecular molecules such as DNA, RNA, and proteins
CLADISTICS • Uses shared and derived characteristics as the criteria for grouping taxa • Ex. feathers unique to birds
