CLASSIFICATION

TAXONOMY

The study of classifying things based on their similarities and differences Modern Classification

Similarities in structures (external and internal)

WHY IS CLASSIFICATION IMPORTANT?

Shows relationship between organisms

BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE
Two-part scientific name First name genus or a group of similar species Second name species or group of organisms that can breed and have fertile offspring

WHY IS BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE IMPORTANT?


One organism can have many common names This can be confusing, so scientists created scientific names to describe organisms

Species

Organisms that can mate and produce fertile offspring SOMETIMES two different species mate, and do NOT produce fertile offspring.

TAXONOMIC KEY DICHOTOMOUS KEY


Helps to identify organisms Statements describe a characteristic

SIX KINGDOMS
Eubacteria Archaebacteria Protista Fungi Plantae Animalia

HOW ARE ORGANISMS PLACED INTO KINGDOMS?


Cell type, complex or simple Their ability to make food The number of cells in their body

MULTICELLULAR AND UNICELLULAR


Unicellular - Organisms made up of one cell Multicellular- Organisms made up of more than one cell

EUKARYOTES AND PROKARYOTES


Eukaryotes - Organisms whose cells have a true nucleus Prokaryotes- The organisms cells DO NOT have a true nucleus

KINGDOMS: PROKARYOTE AND EUKARYOTE

Prokaryotes: Eubacteria and Archaebacteria Eukaryote: Protist, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia

AUTOTROPHS
Organisms that can make their own food Examples: plants, some types of bacteria, algae, moss

HETEROTROPHS
Organisms that cannot make their own food Must consume heterotrophs or autotrophs

ARCHAEBACTERIA
Unicellular prokaryotes that live in extreme conditions typically without oxygen Found in extreme environments
High temperatures Extreme cold Little oxygen Very acid environments

EUBACTERIA
Unicellular Prokaryotes that live almost everywhere Bacteria

BINARY FISSION

CONJUGATION

PROTISTS
Eukaryotes that live in watery or moist environments Most are unicellular but some are multicellular Includes all microscopic that are not bacteria, not animals, not plants and not fungi.

TYPES OF PROTISTS :ALGAE
