Define / Describe binomial of naming species: • - Every organism is given 2 names (by Carl Linnaeus, a Swedish Botanist – in Latin) • These are: Genus & species (Genus – first letter is capitol, species is not – both are italic) • Eg. Canis lupus - Wolf • Can also be written as C. lupus
Classification – each division has its own unique characteristics( REMEMBER: Kings Play Chess On Fine Grained Sand) • Kingdom – Animal, Plant, Fungi, Prokaryotes, Protista • Phylum - vertebrates/ arthropods / nematodes / annelids / mollusks • Class – fish / reptiles/ birds/ amphibians/ mammals - crustaceans, insects, myrapods, arachnids • Order - • Family - • Genus - • Species -
Kingdoms: Animal Plant Fungi Prokaryotes Protista
Kingdom: Animal; Phylum: Vertebrates includes….. • Fish Reptiles Birds: Amphibians: Mammals:
Kingdom: Animals; Phylum: Arthropods includes… • Crustaceans: Insects: • Myrapods: • Arachnids:
Kingdom: animal;Phylum : nematodes / annelids / mollusks includes…. Nematodes: Annelids: Mollusks:
Kingdom: Plants • Phylum: Anthrocerotophyta – (one of many) (Flowering plants) • Monocotyledon (Monocots): • Fibrous roots to uptake more water than Dicots • Over ground damaged roots can regenerate • Roots expand like a mat to maximize surface area to exposed minerals • Dicotyledon (Dicots): • Larger roots more resistant to damage if pulled • Well branched / roots go deep underground • Have thorns for protection (roses)
Monocots / Dicots • What’s a cotyledon? Parts of the seed – Mono – one part / Di – 2 parts
Leaves Dicot Monocot
Info on viruses: ~1 nano-meter (1x 10-9 nm) Virus attaches to the cell’s surface DNA or RNA of the virus (either /or) * Nucleic acid =DNA or RNA = genetic material – enters the cell Viral DNA or RNA makes copy of itself using the cell’s own machinery. Outside the nucleus the virus is assembled New viruses leave the cell
More on Bacteria: 1000 x smaller than animal cell • Single cell organism (prokaryotic) • Cell wall made of peptidoglycan • No nucleus
More on Fungi • Do not do photosynthesis /No chlorophyll • Reproduce via spores • Saprotropic (secrete enzymes on their food / digest it and then absorb it) • Feed on dead and waste matter Myceluim = main body of Mushroom Cell wall made up of chitin Mycelium made up of Hyphe ( small thread like structures that grows where the mushroom is feeding.
There are other classification systems • Cladistics – based on DNA / RNA sequencing data
