1. Criteria for classification as reported in an ancient Chinese encyclopedia (Lakoff 1987): “…it is written that animals are divided into: those that belong to the Emperor embalmed ones those that are trained suckling pigs mermaids fabulous ones stray dogs those that tremble as if they were mad those that have just broken a flower vase

2. Taxonomy- study of classification science of identifying, naming and classifying organisms into groups Systematics- studies diversity of life study and classification of organisms with the goal of reconstructing their evolutionary history

3. Linnaeus- 1700’s, Swedish physician/botanist Developed binomial naming system

5. Example of Coral Classification Kingdom Animalia Phylum Cnidaria Class Anthozoa Order Scleractinia Family Fungiidae Genus Fungia Species scutaria Kingdom Animalia Phylum Cnidaria Class Anthozoa Order Scleractinia Family Fungiidae Genus Fungia Species scutaria The Mushroom Coral Fungia scutaria The Mushroom Coral Fungia scutaria

6. Biological Nomenclature A species is both defined by its genus name and specific name. Ex. Fungia scutaria Fungia- genus name scutaria- species name

8. Biological Species Organisms that are genetically similar, and have ability to interbreed and produce viable, fertile offspring

9. Offspring is sterile mule horse donkey

11. Energy: autotrophic, heterotrophic, chemotrophic Internal/External skeleton: back bone, bone/cartilage Cell structure: multi or single celled, nucleus/no nucleus, cell wall/no cell wall, chlorophyll present/not present, Mode of Reproduction: binary fission, gametes Respiratory system: gills, lungs, gas exchange across skin/epithelium Circulatory system: closed/open, # of chambers in a heart

14. Kingdoms Archaebacteria & Eubacteria (Monera) l Prokaryotic, single-celled organisms. l Heterotrophic, photoautotrophic, and chemoautotrophic species. - Purple sulfur bacteria- chemoautotrophic - Blue-green algae (cyano)- photoautotrophic - E. coli- heterotrophic l Some with cell walls, but cell walls composed of peptidoglycan, not cellulose (as in higher plants).
