Scientists classify all living things into 5 different groups. Monerans (Always 1 celled and do not have a cell nuclei) Protista (Most 1 celled and do have a cell nuclei) Fungi (Many celled, absorb their food from others) Plantae (Many celled, make their own food) Animalae (Many celled, feed on living or once living things. The 5 Kingdoms Bonus Question: Why are the names of the kingdoms spelled “funny”?

Do you need a review? Watch this The Diversity of Life and the Six Kingdoms (the password is acps)The Diversity of Life and the Six Kingdoms Bonus Answer: Because they are in Latin, a language everyone could read when scientific classification was first organized.

Examples: Monerans: Plague bacteria Protista: paramecium Fungi: Star shaped Penicillin Mold Plantae: Buckthorn Cactus Animalae: Ewe and Lamb Bonus Question: Which of these kingdoms contains organisms that are parasites?

Some Common Examples of Each Group Monerans Infected cut: Staph Bacteria Diarrhea: Salmonella Bacteria Bad breath: Mouth Bacteria Pink Eye: Staph Bacteria Yogurt: Bacteria Sour Dough Bread: Bacteria Methane Gas: Bacteria Protistaamoebaalgaediatomsparameciumplankton Fungimushroomspuff ballmoldmildewpenicillinyeastblue cheese Plantaegrasstomatopeachoak treemosssea weedfern AnimalaeSnakeLobsterHumanSnailFrogCatOpossum Bonus Question Answer: Monerans, Protista, Fungi. Plantae and Animalae all contain many parasitic organisms. Parasites live in a host organism damaging it in some way.

animalaemoneransplantaeprotista Check the classification examples I can cause bad smells and make you sick I can also make corn into gas for your car and rubber I have just 1 cell I do not have a nucleus Test Yourself: What kingdom am I? Bacteria Colonies Growing in Agar Culture before Pasteurization.

RIGHT! If there is no nucleus in the cell, it must be part of the Monerans kingdom.

Test Yourself: What kingdom am I? I have many cells My cells have strong rigid walls I use chloroplasts to turn sunlight into food for my self. protistaanimalaeplantaefungi Check the classification examples

RIGHT! Plants have a rigid cell wall since they do not have a skeleton. Plants manufacture energy from the sun using the chloroplasts in their cells. Plants have many cells.

Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species More About Classification Each group is divided into smaller groups with similar characteristics. Phylums are groups of organisms with similar basic body types. Organisms within the same species are so similar they can produce offspring together.

Some examples of Classification KingdomAnimalaeAnimaleaPlantae Phylum Chordata (has a backbone) Vascular Class Mammal (warm blooded) Reptile (cold blooded) Pteridophyta (seedless) Magnoliopseda (Dicotyledons) OrderPrimate Squamata- Serpente PolipodialesRubiales FamilyHomonidElapidaePteridaceaeRubiaceae GenusHomoAdrianAdiantumcoffea Species Sapiens (humans) Naga (spectacled cobra) Maiden Hair Fern (28 species) Arabica (coffee) Bonus Question: Where does the name “Chordata” come from?

Test Yourself: if my name is - Chordata (backbone) Mammalia (warm blooded) Primate Hominid (two legs) Homo Sapiens (intelligent) Which picture is probably me? Bonus Question Answer: From the word cord as in spinal cord.

RIGHT! Humans have backbones, are warmblooded, are two legged, and are intelligent

WRONG! Remember in scientific classification, the scientific name describes the organism. Try the question again!

Test Yourself: my scientific name is - Animalia (Animal) Invertebrata (no backbone) Arthropoda (Joint Footed) Insecta (six legs) Hymenoptera (Membrane Wing) Diptera Formicidae Myrmex Which picture describes me?

RIGHT! Ants have 6 legs and have segmented bodies Ants have no backbone. Their skeleton is their external shell Ants develop membraned wings for mating in the spring Ants smell like formic acid and so are named Formicidae

WRONG! Remember: a scientific name describes the organism. Snakes have NO legs, not six. Try the question again!

WRONG! Remember: a scientific name describes the organism. A tree would not be in the animal kingdom, it would be in the plant kingdom. Try the question again!

Test Yourself: In this picture - Animalia (Animal) Invertebrata (No Backbone) Mollusca (Shell)Gastropoda (Stomach Foot) Stylommatophora Would be the scientific name for Uncle Sam Would be the scientific name for the snail.

RIGHT! Snails’ stomachs open into their foot. Snails are protected by an external shell and have no skeleton or backbone.

WRONG! Remember scientific names describe the organism. Uncle Sam does not have a shell Uncle Sam does not eat through his feet! Try the question again!
