1 CLASSIFICATION Chapter 6 Section 4

2 What is classification?

3 The first person to come up with a system to classify was Aristotle.

4 In ____ Carolus Linnaeus devised the system that we used today. We call this binomial nomenclature.

5 Why is it important for scientist to have a naming system?

6 Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species 7 Levels of Classification

7

8 Animalia Kingdom

9 Phylum Chordata

10 Class Mammalia

11 Order Carnivora Panthera tigris Panthera pardus Puma concolour Panthera leo Puma yagouaroundi Lycaon pictus

12 Family Panthera pardus Felidae Puma concolour Panthera leo Puma yagouaroundi Panthera tigris

13 Genus Puma concolour Puma yagouaroundi

14 Species Puma concolour

15 Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species 7 Levels of Classification

16 Kingdom is the broadest Species is the smallest- represented by only 1 species

17 Binomial nomenclature – Genus and species -Both are always italicized - Genus is capitalized, species is lowercase

18 Family Panthera pardus Felidae Puma concolour Panthera leo Puma yagouaroundi Panthera tigris

19 How do you used classification in your daily life?

20 What is a taxonomic or classification key?

21 MONEY TAXONOMIC KEY 1 A. Metal....................................................go to 2 1 B. Paper....................................................go to 5 2 A. Brown (copper)........................................penny 2 B. Silver....................................................go to 3 3 A. Smooth edge...........................................nickel. 3 B. Ridges around the edge...............................go to 4 4 A. Torch on back..........................................dime 4 B. Eagle on back...........................................quarter 5 A. Number 1 in the corners...............................$1 bill 5 B. Number 2 in the corners...............................$2 bill

22 Why do scientist only ask “yes” or ”no” questions?

23 What is Systematics?

25 Those were example of Molecular Biology. What are the types of Comparative anatomy?
