If you have late homework, please show me. WELCOME, BIO-NINJAS Today you will need: Writing Utensil, Bellwork Sheet, Journal. If you have late homework, please show me. Bellwork: Quick Write. At least 35 words. Summarize what you have learned this week in Biology. When you finish. Open your Journal and set up a page called “TAXONOMY REVIEW”.

Standard B8.B Categorize organisms using a hierarchical classification system based on similarities and differences shared among groups Essential Question: What makes a dichotomous key a useful tool for biologists?

For today… Review for the quiz. (Walk Around Review) How seriously you take this will determine whether or not I allow you to use your notes on the quiz.

What type of animal is Musca domestica? Organism Cat Wolf Fly Kingdom Animalia Phylum Chordata Arthropoda Class Mammalia Insecta Order Carnivora Diptera Family Felidae Canidae Muscidae Genus Felis Canis Musca Species F. domesticus C. lupus M. domestica What type of animal is Musca domestica? From the table, which 2 animals are most closely related? 3. At what classification level does the evolutionary relationship between cats and wolves diverge (become different)? Have students study this chart. The next slide lists three questions to answer using this chart. You may have to advance to the next slide, let students read the question and then come back to the chart so they can find the answer.

The information below describes the most specific levels of classification that the mushroom sea squirt, Sycozoa gaimardi, shares with four other organisms. The mushroom sea squirt is in the same class as the common sea grape. The mushroom sea squirt is in the same family as the blue spot ascidian. The mushroom sea squirt is in the same order as the white speck tunicate. The mushroom sea squirt is in the same phylum as the starry skate. 12. To which of the four organisms is the mushroom sea squirt most closely related?

13. Which of the beetles above must belong to the same family?

Whales Most Closely Related 14. Four students researched the classifications of the following eight whales: killer whale, Orcinus orca gray whale, Eschrichtius robustus humpback whale, Megaptera novaeangliae pygmy right whale, Caperea marginata fin whale, Balaenoptera physalus minke whale, Balaenoptera acutorostrata North Atlantic right whale, Eubalaena glacialis bowhead whale, Balaena mysticetus The students were asked which two whales are most closely related and why. The table below summarizes the students’ answers. Based on the classifications, which student gave the correct answer to the question? Student Whales Most Closely Related Reason 1 killer whale and gray whale They are both mammals. 2 humpback whale and pygmy right whale They are both whales. 3 fin whale and minke whale They are both in the same genus. 4 North Atlantic right whale and bowhead whale They are both in the same family.
