What’s more
ACTIVITY:
1. List down the practical uses of biological classification.
Classification helps in the identification of living organisms as wells as in
understanding the diversity of living organisms.
Classification  provide a clear and practical way to organize and communicate
information about organisms.
Classification helps us to learn about different kinds of plants and animals, their
features, similarities and differences.
Classification forms a base for the development of other biological sciences. 
Classification helps in avoiding chaos and confusion when dealing with animals
as it arranges the information on organisms in an orderly manner.
Classification makes the study of such a wide variety of organisms easy.
Classification projects before us a good picture of all life forms at a glance
Classification helps us understand the interrelationship among different groups of
organisms.
Various fields of applied biology such as agriculture, public health and
environmental biology depend on classification of pests, disease vectors,
pathogens and components of an ecosystem.
Taxonomic systems provide relatively stable, unique, and unequivocal names for
organisms.

What’s more
ACTIVITY: Phylogenic Tree

1. Choose any vertebrates and Create phylogenetic tree showing their evolutionary
relationships. This tree should be primarily based on physical characteristics, such as:
I. Presence or absence of a backbone
II. Ability to breathe in air or water
III.Cold or warm blooded Carnivore, herbivore, or omnivore
IV. Presence or absence of hair/fur
 V. Any other external structures such as horns
2. Research on the internet on the

sample of Phylogenic Tree.

What’s I can do
PERFORMANCE TASK:

1. Go online. Choose a group of organisms you are interested to work with (e.g. invertebrates);
2. Download pictures of different species.
3. Print the pictures. In tabular form, list all the characters. Evaluate the characters (whether primitive or derived).
4. Remember that in building your cladogram, use only shared derived characters.
5. Construct your own cladogram.

CHARACTERISTICS EVALUATION
