  1. TAXONOMY

  2. is a branch of science that deals with the classifications of living things Taxonomy .

  3. Carolus Linnaeus 1753 Father of Taxonomy

  4. Three Interrelated Parts of Taxonomy • Classification Arrangement into groups • Nomenclature Assignment of Names • Identification Determining Identity

  5. Five Kingdom System • Animalia • Plantae • Fungi • Protista • Procaryote/Monera

  6. Monera(Bacteria)

  7. Fungi • Absorptive Chemoheterotrophs • Decomposers

  8. Protista • Unicellular • Autotrophic or Heterotrophic • Examples: • Amoeba • Paramecium, • Euglena

  9. Animalia • Multicellular • Heterotrophs

  10. The 5 Classes of Vertebrates

  11. Reptiles • They breathe with lungs. • They are cold-blooded. • Their bodies are covered with dry scales. • They lay eggs. • Black snakes, Bearded dragons, Turtles, Crocodiles, and Alligators are reptiles.

  12. Reptiles • Geckos and Skinks are unusual reptiles. • Frogs and Toads are non examples.

  13. Amphibians • They breathe with lungs and gills. • They are cold blooded. • Their skin is smooth and moist. • Their birth of young is eggs. • The examples are frogs, salamanders, newt, and mud puppies.

  14. Amphibians • African clawed frog is a unusual example. • The lizard is a non-example.

  15. Fish • They breathe with gills. • They are cold blooded. • Their skin is covered with scales and bony plates. • They lay eggs and have live births. • An example of a fish is a gold fish and sharks.

  16. Fish • A unusual example would be a sea horse and an eel. • A non-example would be a dolphin, whale and starfish.

  17. Mammals • Mammals breathe with lungs. • They are warm blooded. • They have hair/fur. • Most give birth to live young. • Some examples are bears, lions, tigers, and people. • Some unusual examples bats, whales, and dolphins

  18. Mammals • Non-examples are sharks and penguins.

  19. Birds • Birds breathe with lungs. • They are warm-blooded. • They are covered with feathers. • They give birth to eggs. • Examples of birds would be a red bird, hawk, and chicken. • Some unusual birds are the ostrich, flamingo, and penguin.

  20. Birds • Some non-examples are the bat and the dragonfly.

  21. Invertebrates8 Phyla of Invertebrates

  22. Phylum Porifera (sponges) • asymmetrical • Body has canal and pores • sessile (attached to object, cannot move)

  23. Phylum Coelenterata (stinging cell) • Stinging cells and hollow bodies • tentacles that surround a mouth Examples: • Jellyfish • sea anemone • coral • hydras

  24. Phylum Echinodermata (spiny skin) • 5 part body • spines • Tube Feet (with Suctions) • Examples • Sea star or starfish Sea urchins, sand dollars

  25. Phylum Platyhelminthes (Flatworm) • flattened body • One body opening • Many are parasites, some are Free-Living • Can regenerate Examples: • Planaria, Tapeworm

  26. Phylum Nemathelminthes (Nematoda/roundworm) • Round bodies with pointed ends • Males & females are separate Examples: • Hookwork • Ascaris

  27. Phylum Annelida (segmented worm) • Body divided into segments (with setae) • Most are hermaphrodites & free living • Examples Earthworms Ragworms Leeches

  28. Phylum Mollusca (soft-bodied) • Soft body usually protected by a shell • Body covered by mantle • Have muscular foot • Most have separate sexes • Examples: snails, slugs, octopus, cuttlefish, chitons, tusk shells, oysters, clams, and squids
