Table Classification Activity Try to make a classification scheme for the items at your desk

Classification The arrangement of organisms into orderly groups based on their similarities. Scientists use evolutionary relationships and physical similarities as their basis for classification Physical similarities/DNA similarities The goal of classification is to isolate an organism to a species

Species The most specific level of organization An isolated group of organisms that share the same characteristics and can mate to produce fertile offspring

Why would scientists want to classify?

Why would scientists want to classify? Organization Universal Easier to study Answer questions like How many species are there What defines each specie- makes it unique What relationships are there among species

Back in the day Linneaus- the Father of Taxonomy Changed naming from 12 names to 2 names- much easier

Taxonomy The science of identifying, classifying and then naming organisms

Binomial nomenclature A two name, naming system Standard writing= Genus, species

Practice Time Scientific Name Common name homo sapien humans pandinus imperator emperor scorpion PYGOCENTRUS NATTERERI pirahna CEPHALOTUS FOLLICULARIS Australian Pitcher Plant

Classification Kingdom- Animalia Phylum- Arthropoda Class- Insecta Order- Lepidoptera Family- Nymphalidae Genus- Danaus Specie- plexipus

More Practice Questions This is the classification of the house cat: K-Animalia P -Chordata C -Mammalia O- Carnivora F- Felidae G-Felis S- domesticus What is the house cat’s scientific name? The Indian Elephant’s scientific name is Elephas maximus what genus does the Indian elephant belong in?
