Taxonomy - The basics Taxonomy is the science of naming living thingsTaxonomy is the science of naming living things Names must be uniform so scientists can describe an organism regardless of their native languagesNames must be uniform so scientists can describe an organism regardless of their native languages Organisms are classified according to the following orderOrganisms are classified according to the following order –Kingdom –Phylum –Class –Order –Family –Genus –Species

Binomial Nomenclature Naming of organisms is by the rules of Binomial NomenclatureNaming of organisms is by the rules of Binomial Nomenclature –The name is typically in latin –The name must be either italicized, or underlined –Organisms are labeled according to a two name system –The First name is the Genus of the organism –Genus Must always be capitalized. –It may be abbreviated with a capital letter –The second name is the species name –it must also either be italicized, or underlined

Example naming Here's an example for humansHere's an example for humans –Genus: HomoSpecies: Sapiens –Acceptable naming: Homo sapiensHomo sapiens H. sapiensH. sapiens
