Species of Organisms There are 13 billion known species of organisms This is only 5% of all organisms that ever lived!!!!! New organisms are still being found and identified copyright cmassengale

4 What is Classification?
Classification is the arrangement of organisms into orderly groups based on their similarities Classification is also known as taxonomy Taxonomists are scientists that identify & name organisms copyright cmassengale

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

6 Confusion in Using Different Languages for Names
copyright cmassengale

7 Latin Names are Understood by all Taxonomists
copyright cmassengale

8 copyright cmassengale
Early Taxonomists 2000 years ago, Aristotle was the first taxonomist Aristotle divided organisms into plants & animals He subdivided them by their habitat ---land, sea, or air dwellers copyright cmassengale

9 copyright cmassengale
Early Taxonomists John Ray, a botanist, was the first to use Latin for naming His names were very long descriptions telling everything about the plant copyright cmassengale

10 copyright cmassengale
Carolus Linnaeus 1707 – 1778 18th century taxonomist Classified organisms by their structure Developed naming system still used today copyright cmassengale

11 copyright cmassengale
Carolus Linnaeus Called the “Father of Taxonomy” Developed the modern system of naming known as binomial nomenclature Two-word name (Genus & species) copyright cmassengale

12 copyright cmassengale
Standardized Naming Binomial nomenclature used Genus species Latin or Greek Italicized in print Capitalize genus, but NOT species Underline when writing Turdus migratorius American Robin copyright cmassengale

13 Binomial Nomenclature
Which TWO are more closely related? copyright cmassengale

14 Classification Groups
Taxon ( taxa-plural) is a category into which related organisms are placed There is a hierarchy of groups (taxa) from broadest to most specific copyright cmassengale

15 Hierarchy-Taxonomic Groups
Domain Kingdom Phylum (Division – used for plants) Class Order Family Genus Species BROADEST TAXON 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 copyright cmassengale

16 Linnaeus's System of Classification
 Each level is called a taxon, or taxonomic category. Species and genus are the two smallest categories. Grizzly bear Black bear Linnaeus’s hierarchical system of classification uses seven taxonomic categories. This illustration shows how a grizzly bear, Ursus arctos, is grouped within each taxonomic category. Only some representative species are illustrated for each category above the species level.

17 Linnaeus's System of Classification
Genera that share many characteristics are grouped in a larger category, the family. Grizzly bear Black bear Giant panda Linnaeus’s hierarchical system of classification uses seven taxonomic categories. This illustration shows how a grizzly bear, Ursus arctos, is grouped within each taxonomic category. Only some representative species are illustrated for each category above the species level. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

18 Linnaeus's System of Classification
An order is a broad category composed of similar families. Grizzly bear Black bear Giant panda Red fox Linnaeus’s hierarchical system of classification uses seven taxonomic categories. This illustration shows how a grizzly bear, Ursus arctos, is grouped within each taxonomic category. Only some representative species are illustrated for each category above the species level.

Taxons Most genera contain a number of similar species The genus Homo is an exception (only contains modern humans) Classification is based on evolutionary relationships copyright cmassengale

31 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Phylogeny is the study of evolutionary relationships among organisms. Biologists currently group organisms into categories that represent lines of evolutionary descent, or phylogeny, not just physical similarities. The strategy of grouping organisms is based on evolutionary history and is called evolutionary classification. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

32 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
The higher the level of the taxon, the further back in time is the common ancestor of all the organisms in the taxon. Organisms that appear very similar may not share a recent common ancestor. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

33 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Classification Using Cladograms Many biologists now use a method called cladistic analysis. Characteristics that appear in recent parts of a lineage but not in its older members are called derived characteristics. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Different Methods of Classification Crustaceans Mollusk Appendages Conical Shells Crab Barnacle Limpet Crab Barnacle Limpet Early systems of classification grouped organisms together based on visible similarities. That approach might result in classifying limpets and barnacles together (left). Biologists now group organisms into categories that represent lines of evolutionary descent, or phylogeny, not just physical similarities. Crabs and barnacles are now grouped together (right) because they share several characteristics that indicate that they are more closely related to each other than either is to limpets. These characteristics include segmented bodies, jointed limbs, and an external skeleton that is shed during growth.

37 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Similarities in DNA and RNA The genes of many organisms show important similarities at the molecular level. Similarities in DNA can be used to help determine classification and evolutionary relationships. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

38 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
DNA Evidence The more similar the DNA of two species, the more recently they shared a common ancestor, and the more closely they are related in evolutionary terms. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

39 Molecular Clocks A gene in an ancestral species
A molecular clock uses DNA comparisons to estimate the length of time that two species have been evolving independently. 2 mutations 2 mutations new mutation new mutation new mutation Species Species Species A B C

40 Basis for Modern Taxonomy
Homologous structures (same structure, different function) Similar embryo development Molecular Similarity in DNA, RNA, or amino acid sequence of Proteins copyright cmassengale

18-2 In an evolutionary classification system, the higher the taxon level, A) the more similar the members of the taxon become. B) the more common ancestors would be found in recent time. C) the fewer the number of species in the taxon. D) the farther back in time the common ancestors would be. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

46 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
18-2 Classifying organisms using a cladogram depends on identifying A) external and internal structural similarities. B) new characteristics that have appeared most recently as lineages evolve. C) characteristics that have been present in the group for the longest time. D) individual variations within the group. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
