Living things are placed into different groups because it makes them easier to organize ‘and easier to study. There are over 1.4 milion Kinds of known living things. With this iany living things you can see why itis important to develop a system to classify them. ‘There are many different features scientiéts use to classify organisms. Living things may be classified based on their outward appearance, structures inside their body, ancestral relationships, genetic characteristics, and behavior. Many times scientists develop keys to help other people identity a living thing. A type of key called a dichotomous key allows the person using it to make decisions on features a Tiving thing has. Generally speaking, the choices in the key start broadly and get more specific, Eventually, the decision is narrowed down to the name ofa living thing or group fo which a living thing belongs. Directions: In this activity you will leam how to use a dichotomous key. Start by looking at one of the pictures of living things at the bottom of this page. To classify this living thing, you will work your way down the dichotomous key on the next page. Do this by reading the first question on the key and answering it. Follow the line that connects the question to your answer. Then read the next question and follow the line ‘connacted to your next answer. Do this until you reach the.end of the lines, where ‘you will write the name of that living thing in the empty box.

How do scientists hypothesize that life arose on early Earth? Scientists think that early Earth had a different atmosphere than it has today. On ancient Earth, nitrogen, water vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane were probably the most abundant gases in the atmosphere. Although all these gases still make up a small part of the atmosphere today, the major gases are nitrogen. and oxygen. Scientists have formed hypotheses about what the first life forms were like. First, early life forms did not need oxygen to survive. Second, they were probably unicellular organisms. Third, they probably lived in the oceans. In 1953, Miller and Urey designed an experiment that recreated the conditions of early Earth in their laboratory. They placed water and a mixture of the gases that probably made up early Earth’s atmosphere into a flask. Then, they sent an electric current through the mixture to act as lightning. Within a week, the mixture in the flask contained some small chemical units that could form proteins. In similar experiments, other scientists succeeded in producing carbohydrates and nucleic acids. 35 Scientists hypothesize that the small chemical units of life formed gradually over millions of years in Earth’s waters. Some of these chemical units joined to form the large chemical building blocks found in cells. Eventually, some of these large chemicals joined together and became the forerunners of the first cells. This hypothesis is supported by evidence from fossils. Fossils are traces of ancient organisms that have been preserved in rock or other substances. Fossils of bacteria-like organisms have been found that are between 3.4 and 3.5 billion years old: Scientists think that these ancient cells may be evidence of Earth’s earliest forms of life. y heterotrophs that used the chemicals The first cells were probabl ‘oduced, jn their surroundings for energy. As they grew and repr their numbers increased. As their numbers increased, the amount of chemicals available to them decreased. At some point, some of the cells may have developed the ability to make their own food. ‘As they made their own food, they produced oxygen as a waste product. Oxygen accumulated in Barth’s atmosphere. Over hundreds of millions of years, the amount of oxygen increased to its current level. ef -ike organisms from -fbscil_ evidence.
