Taxonomy and Classification Classify = group ideas, information, or objects based on similarities

Basics of Taxonomy Taxonomy- the science of classifying and naming things Aristotle- First to classify by habitat (350 B.C.) John Ray- developed the modern concept of the species (1600’s) Linnaeus- Swedish botanist, came up with Binomial Nomenclature, using Latin words. His system is used today.

Scientific Name: The Proper Form Binomial Nomenclature- “two names” Both words are underlined if written If typed, both words are italicized. Genus is capitalized and the species portion of the name is lowercase Homo sapiens or Homo sapiens ( use genus species names)
