1 Taxonomic classification:
The ordering and naming of organisms Carolus Linnaeus (mid-1700s) “God makes them, I name them”

2 BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE
Genus name & specific epithet Genus begins with _________ letter Genus & species underlined or in ______ E.g., Passer domesticus, P. turkistanicus HIERARCHICAL ORGANIZATION Taxon = group of related organisms

3 Hierarchical analogies:
TAXON ANALOGY DOMAIN Continent KINGDOM Country PHYLUM State CLASS City ORDER Street FAMILY House No. GENUS ___________ SPECIES

4 SYSTEMATICS: Classification that reflects ________ relationships PHYLOGENY: The __________ history of taxa Presented as a phylogenetic tree Similar species grouped on branches

5 Phylogenetic tree

6 Branches of trees based in fundamental similarities 1) Body symmetry
Asymmetry Ancestral multicellular animal

7 Asymmetry _____ regular shape sponge

8 Radial symmetry Sponges Ancestral multicellular animal _______
Asymmetry Ancestral multicellular animal

9 Multiple ________ cuts create similar parts Can also ____-shaped
Radial Symmetry Multiple ________ cuts create similar parts Can also ____-shaped Moon jelly

10 Longitudinal axis

11 Bilateral symmetry Jellies Sponges Ancestral multicellular animal
Radial symmetry Asymmetry ________ symmetry Ancestral multicellular animal

12 Bilateral Symmetry Have left and right sides Only equally divisible along ______ plane

13 ANTERIOR versus POSTERIOR
Front end versus rear end Anterior Posterior

14 Clam

15 DORSAL versus VENTRAL Upper versus lower ______ Dorsal Ventral

16 Body segmentation Like slices of bread 1) Unsegmented Roundworms
Flatworms ___________ Jellies Sponges Radial symmetry Asymmetry Bilateral symmetry Ancestral multicellular animal

17 2) External segmentation
Roundworms Flatworms Jellies Sponges Radial symmetry unsegmented _______ segmentation Asymmetry Bilateral symmetry Ancestral multicellular animal

18 Obvious, like a ____ of bread
Segmented worms Arthropods

19 External segmentation
3) Internal segmentation Roundworms Arthropods Segmented worms Flatworms Jellies Sponges Radial symmetry External segmentation Asymmetry Bilateral symmetry ______ segmentation Ancestral multicellular animal

20 Must look ______ Endoskeleton, muscles, nerves

21 External segmentation
Skeleton 1) Exoskeleton Roundworms Segmented worms Arthropods Flatworms Jellies __________ Sponges Radial symmetry External segmentation Asymmetry Bilateral symmetry Internal segmentation Ancestral multicellular animal

22 Exoskeleton Hard skeleton outside, muscles inside E.g., insects, crustaceans

23 External segmentation
2) Endoskeleton Roundworms Segmented worms Arthropods Flatworms Jellies Exoskeleton Sponges Radial symmetry External segmentation Asymmetry Bilateral symmetry Internal segmentation Endoskeleton Ancestral multicellular animal Chordates

24 Endoskeleton Hard skeleton inside, muscles outside

25 “SHELLS” Neither endo- or exo-skeletons
Snails and clams = _____ Turtles and crustaceans= ________ Protists & sea urchins = _____ Chiton shells have 8 plates Dorsal view Ventral view
