1. Warm Up 1/20 1. Answer the cladogram. question on your notes sheet. 2
Warm Up 1/ Answer the cladogram question on your notes sheet. 2. Glue in your definitions on page Glue in your notes on page 57

2. Standard: 8B Categorize organisms using a hierarchical classification system based on similarities and differences shared among groups
Essential question: What is taxonomy and why is it important to scientists?

3. Classification is the grouping of objects or information based on similarities.

4. In Biology: Taxonomy is the science of grouping and naming organisms.
……in other words, taxonomy is the process of classifying and naming biological (living) organisms.

5. Phylogeny: The study of evolutionary relationships among organisms
one way to classify organisms

6. What is the science of grouping and naming organisms called???
TAXONOMY

7. Let’s look at some animals 

8. Devil Cat

9. Ghost Cat

10. Mountain Lion

11. Screaming Cat

12. Puma

13. Florida Panther

14. Cougar

15. There are at least 50 common names for
the animal shown on the previous 7 slides.
Common names vary according to region.
How could we fix this problem?

16. Confusion in Using Different Languages for Names

17. Latin Names are Understood by all Taxonomists

18. Benefits of Classifying
Accurately & uniformly names organisms
Prevents misnomers such as starfish & jellyfish that aren't really fish
Uses same language (Latin or Greek) for all names
Sea”horse”??

19. The major classification levels, from most general (broadest) to most specific
Domain
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species
BROADEST TAXON
A group at any level is a taxon. Multiple levels are taxa.
Genus and species are the two names used to identify specific organisms in the binomial system of classification. Division is used for plants.
Most Specific

20. Darling
Katy
Perry
Came
Over
For
Good
Soup!

22. Domains Broadest, most inclusive taxon Include: Eukarya (eukaryotes)
Archaea (unicellular prokaryotes)
Bacteria (unicellular prokaryotes)
Eukarya (eukaryotes)

23. 3 Domains 6 Kingdoms Fungi Archaea Archaebacteria Eubacteria Bacteria
Plantae
Fungi
Eukaryota
Animalia
Protista

24. The six kingdoms in the classification system are: 1. Eubacteria 2
The six kingdoms in the classification system are: 1. Eubacteria 2. Archaebacteria 3. Protista 4. Fungi 5. Plantae 6. Animalia

25. Carolus Linnaeus 1707 – 1778 ADD This to your notes!
18th century taxonomist. Called the “Father of Taxonomy”.
Classified organisms by their structure.
Developed naming system known as binomial nomenclature.
Two-word name (Uses the Genus and Species)
ADD This to your notes!

26. Binomial Nomenclature Rules
   
The genus name is written first (Capitalized).    
The species name is written second (lower case).    
Both words are italicized if typed or underlined if hand written.
Example: Felis concolor or
F. concolor
Which is the genus? The species?
Turdus migratorius

27. Write these out these scientific names correctly
Panthera leo
Cardinalis cardinalis
Acer rubrum
Panthera leo
Cardinalis cardinalis
Acer rubrum
PANTHERA LEO CARDINALIS CARDINALIS ACER RUBRUM

28. Binomial Nomenclature
Which TWO are more closely related?

29. Fill in the blank: Domain, kingdom, phylum, __________, order, family, genus, species
Class

30. Classification practice

31. Binomial Nomenclature Practice
You have 8 minutes!!!

32. Debrief
What characteristics do you think separate the different kingdoms?
What are some things you would classify in the kingdom Fungi? Eubacteria? Plantae?

33. Write the bolded part of the question and write your answer.
Bellwork:
Write the bolded part of the question and write your answer.
1. One of the ways that scientists can trace the ancestry of animals is through the fossil record. What can scientists NOT tell from their studies of the fossil record?
order
A. The sequence of the appearance of different groups
B. The common ancestry of various groups
C. The geographical regions where groups lived
D. The future appearance of the groups
