E. SUBJECT MATTER
Classification.
Classification is the arranging of living organisms in groups according to
similarities and differences between each other to facilitate studying and identifying
them. Classification of the living organism based on similarities and differences. Both
of them can be seen through morphology, anatomy, or even biochemistry.
Morphology is the form and structure of an organism or any of its parts, while the
anatomy is the scientific study of the body and how its parts are arranged.
The benefit of classification:
 It provides information regarding the diversity of plants and animals.
 It makes the study of different kinds of organisms much easier.
 It tells us about the inter-relationship among the various organisms.

2
  It helps us to understand the evolution of organisms.
 It helps environmentalists to develop new methods of conservation of plants and
animals.
Cladogram
Cladograms are diagrams which depict the relationship between the different
group of taxa called “clades”. Cladograms are constructed by grouping organisms
together based on their shared derived characteristic.

Five Kingdom Classification

The Five Kingdom Classification proposed by Robert Whittaker stood out and
is widely used. Whitaker proposed that organisms should be broadly divided into
kingdoms, based on certain characters like the structure of the cell, mode of nutrition,
the source of nutrition, interrelationship, body organization, and reproduction.
According to this system, there are five main kingdoms. They are kingdom Monera,
Protista, Animalia, Plantae, and Fungi.

Monera
These organisms are prokaryotic and unicellular. They do not have a well-defined
nucleus and also lack cell organelles. Some organisms show the presence of cell
wall while there are others without a cell wall. Consequently, some organisms are
autotrophic and others are heterotrophic. Examples include Bacteria,
Cyanobacteria, and Mycoplasma.

Protista
Organisms grouped under Kingdom Protista are all unicellular, but eukaryotic
organisms. These are the simplest forms of eukaryotes that exhibit either autotrophic
or heterotrophic mode of nutrition. Some organisms have appendages such as cilia
or flagella or pseudopodia to move around. Some examples are Diatoms, Protozoans
like Amoeba, Paramoecium

Animalia
Heterotrophic, Multicellular and Eukaryotic organisms are grouped under
Kingdom Fungi. Their mode of nutrition is saprophytic as they use decaying organic
matter as food. They have cell walls, which are made up of a substance called
Chitin. Fungi also form a symbiotic association with some blue-green algae. Yeast,
Mushroom, Aspergillus are examples of Fungi.

Plantae
These are Eukaryotic, Multicellular organisms with a cell wall that is made up of
cellulose. They are autotrophs and synthesize their own food through the process of
photosynthesis. This kingdom includes all plants.

3
 Fungi
This Kingdom includes organisms that are Multicellular, Eukaryotic, without the
presence of cell wall. They have a heterotrophic mode of nutrition. They also exhibit
great diversity. Some organisms are simple while others have a complex body with
specialized tissue differentiation and body organs.

1 Preliminary activities (5 minutes)
1st stage (Motivating and learning goals)
 The teacher greets the students.
 Students and teacher pray together.
 The teacher checks student’s attendance.
 The teacher giving apperception by asking:
“Have you ever gone to the bookstore? “
 The students answer the question that teacher asked.
 The teacher giving another apperception by asking:
“Have you ever noticed the arrangement of their books? How is it?”
 The students answer the question that teacher asked.
 The teacher giving the motivation using the power point:
“We have talked a little bit about the arrangement of these books. Today
we're going to learn about the arrangement. It is not about the book but
the arrangement of the living organisms in five kingdoms. Also, how do
we make a cladogram, a diagram that represents the relationship
between organism”.

4
  The teacher explains the aim of today’s learning:
“So, today we’re going to learn about the meaning, the principles, the
benefit of classification, the five kingdom and make a cladogram”.

2 Core activities (25 minutes)

2nd stage (Present the new material)
 The teacher explaining about the meaning, the principles, and the benefit
of classification, the characteristic in each kingdom.
 The teacher explains how to make a cladogram based on the information
on worksheet.
 The students listen to the teacher’s explanation.
 The teacher asked the students to focus on the material.

3rd stage (Guided practice)

 The teacher gives the students a worksheet about cladogram.
 The teacher asked the students to read the procedure on the worksheet
and to prepare the pencil and paper.
 The teacher asked the students to make a cladogram using the procedure
on worksheet.
 The teacher guides the students to make a cladogram and ask them about
the obstacle they had during learning.

4th stage (Verification feedback)

 The teacher asked two students to present their cladogram.
 The teacher checks the student’s understanding of the material. If the
students do not understand the material, the teacher has to correct them
and give feedback.
 The teacher asked the students to submit their cladogram.
 The students along with the teacher conclude material that they learn
during this meeting.
 The teacher gives a chance to students for asking.

3 Closing activities (5 minutes)

5th stage (Independent practice)
 The teacher gives the student an assignment about how to make a
cladogram with different objects.
 The teacher explains the benefit of using a cladogram in life.
 The teacher ends today’s lesson

 CLADOGRAM

Cladograms are diagrams which depict the relationship between the different group of taxa
called “clades”. Cladograms are constructed by grouping organisms together based on their
shared derived characteristic.
1. Fill out the following character matrix. Mark an “X” if an organism has the trait.
Taxa
Characters Shark Bullfrog Kangaroo Human

Vertebrae
Two pairs of limb
Mammary glands
Placenta
2. Draw a venn diagram!
Start with the character that is shared by all the taxa on the outside. Inside each box,
write the taxa that have only that set of characters.

3. Convert the venn diagram into a cladogram! Follow these steps!

a) First, draw a 45 degree straight line.
b) Put the trait that owned by all organism in the bottom of the line by drawing a
straight line
c) Put the trait that separates one organism to others above the first line by drawing a
straight line, give a space.
d) Place the organism that separated from others between the first and the second
straight line by drawing a straight branch line.

8
 e) Repeat this step until all organism placed on a cladogram.
4. What separates kangaroo from the human on this cladogram?
5. Which organism is most related to human on this cladogram?
