CLASSIFICATION OF LIFE
Terms To Know Prokaryote: Simple cells that have no nucleus Eukaryote: Complex cells, with a nucleus and many organelles Unicellular: Organisms made of one cell Multicellular: Organisms made of two or more cells Autotroph: Producers who make their own food Heterotroph: Consumers who get energy from other sources besides themselves
3
3 Domains, 6 Kingdoms
4
Taxonomy: The science of identifying and classifying into related groups Taxon: a group
5
Taxa Did king Philip come over for grape soda?
7
Binomial Nomenclature
A two-word scientific name assigned to every species Assigned by the Genus species Examples: Homo sapiens Acer rubrum Panthera tigris Genus is always capitalized, species is lower case Acer rubrum: red maple Panthera tigris: tiger
8
3 Domains, 6 Kingdoms
9
Bacteria All of the unicellular prokaryotes
Can be autotrophic or heterotrophic Examples: Streptococcus, E-Coli, Cyanobacteria
10
Eubacteria vs. Archaebacteria (2 separate domains and kingdoms)
Contain most types of bacteria Found in nearly all conditions Archaebacteria Found in unusual conditions: volcanic vents and hot springs Have unusual lipids in their cell membranes
11
E-Coli (Eubacteria)
12
Streptococcus pyogenes (Strep Throat) Eubacteria
13
Kingdom Protista Typically unicellular
Many of the exceptions to the rules You’ll know it’s a Protista if it doesn’t fit any other category Cell walls in some, some have chloroplasts Most unicellular, some multi-cellular Autotroph or heterotroph
14
Amoeba
15
Paramecium
16
Slime Molds
17
Kingdom Fungi Heterotrophs with cell walls
Most are multi-cellular (mushrooms) but some are unicellular (yeast)
18
Mushrooms
19
Club Fungi
20
Kingdom Plantae Multicellular autotrophs with cell walls
21
Mosses
22
Ferns
23
Flowering Plants
24
Trees
25
Kingdom Animalia Multicellular heterotrophs with no cell walls
26
Coral
27
Insects
28
Fish
29
Birds
30
Amphibians and Reptiles
31
Mammals
32
Viruses Viruses are not listed because viruses are not living!
Viruses are a piece of DNA or RNA contained by protein; they are not cells. Viruses require a cell from one of the kingdoms above to reproduce.

Representing Evolutionary Relationships:
Phylogenetic Tree: Scientific tree showing evolutionary history - shows relationships thought to exist between groups or organisms
35
Representing Evolutionary Relationships:
Cladogram: Uses shared derived traits Derived traits indicate divergence from a common ancestor
