1 Introduction to Animals Chapter 4 7th Grade Life Science Mrs. Howard’s Class

2 Taxonomy and Classification

3 Binomial Nomenclature classification system in which each species is assigned a two-part scientific name consisting of the Genus and species Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus species (King Phillip Came Over For Good Spaghetti) Taxonomy for humans would be: Animalia, Chordata, Mammalia, Primatae, Hominidae, Homo sapiens

4 Heterotrophic Eukaryotic multicellular lack cell walls >95% = invertebrates (do not have backbone) <5% = vertebrates (have a backbone) Characteristics of Animals

5 Invertebrates and Vertebrates Flatworms - Platyhelminthes Roundworms - Nematoda Segmented worms - Annelida

6 Animal Functions 1.Obtaining Food 2.Obtaining Oxygen 3.Maintaining Homeostasis 4.Movement (most animals) 5.Reproduction

7 Animal Functions Obtaining Food Carnivore (Eats animals) Herbivore (Eats plants) Omnivore (Eats both) Detritivore (Eats dead or decaying matter)

8 Animal Functions Obtaining Oxygen (Respiration) Take in O2 and give off CO2 Using lungs, gills or through skin (diffusion)

9 Animal Functions Maintaining Homeostasis Circulation/ Temperature regulation Very small animals rely on diffusion Larger animals have circulatory system

10 Animal Functions Movement: How they move can vary (swim, crawl, fly, run, slither) *Some animals don’t move at all!

11 Animal Functions Reproduction: Most reproduce sexually = genetic diversity Many invertebrates can also reproduce asexually
