18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 1 of 26 Classification of Living Organisms Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 2 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Classification: To group according to like traits. Biodiversity: The many different types of organisms living in one area. System of classification is needed because: 5 million organisms have already been classified. BUT -12 to 13 million believed to exist but have not yet been discovered. Rain Forest and Deep Oceans
Slide 3 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall This furry lobster is so distinct a new family and genus had to be created. Found 2300 meters deep in the South Pacific ocean There is still a lot to classify……..
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 4 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Aristotle: Greek philosopher ( B.C.)
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 5 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Aristotle: created the 1 st system of classification. Aristotle divided all living organisms into two main groups based on physical traits: Plants (structure) Animals (habitat) Large Woody Small woody Land Air Water Soft Stemmed
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 6 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Good start but………. What about: Organisms can not change their classification within their life time.
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 7 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Carl Linnaeus developed a system of classification that we still use today. His system is Binomial Nomenclature. -a two word naming system Bi = 2 Nomial = name Nomenclature = naming system
Slide 8 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall His system is based on an 8 step classification system which ended in a two word name This two word name is known as a scientific name. Example: What is the scientific name of a human? Homo sapien
Slide 9 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall What does a Puma, Cougar and Mountain Lion have in common? Puma……………. Cougar…………. Mountain Lion…..
Slide 10 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall They are all the same organisms just with different common names. Common names are different names for the same organism based on where they live.
Slide 11 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Since they are all the same organisms they all have the same scientific name………… Felis concolor or Felis concolor
Slide 12 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Scientific names are universally used. - they are used by all scientist around the world as a common naming system.
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 13 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 8 Division of Classification: (Broadest to most specific) Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus species Did King Phillip come over for grape soda?
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 14 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Three Domains: 1. Archaebacteria: “ Ancient Bacteria”, First living cells, live in extreme conditions Known as EXTREMOPHILES -live in swamps, guts of animals,salty oceans volcanic vents and hot springs. 2. Eubacteria: “True bacteria” Bacteria which affects your everyday life some even causing tooth decay,spoils our food, causes illness. Evolved from archaebacteria.
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 15 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 3. Eukarya: “True Nucleus”, this domain contains all organisms whose cells contain a nucleus: Eukarya Domain is divided into four Kingdoms: Protista: Fungi: Plantae: Animalia:

18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 17 of 26 Species: Most specific division of classification. Organisms of the same species can successfully reproduce viable offspring. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 18 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Species can be further divided into subspecies: Breeds: Races: Varieties:
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 19 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Scientific Names: 2 word name -based on the two most specific divisions of classification. GENUS AND SPECIES
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 20 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Rules for writing Scientific Names: 1. First word is the Genus and it is always capitalized. 2. Second word is the species and it is always lower case. 3. The entire name is underlined or italicized. Ursus arctos or Ursus arctos
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 21 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Hybrids: Organisms of the same genus but different species reproduce and produce offspring that are “usually” sterile.
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 22 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall LIGER A liger is the offspring of a lion and a tigress. It is bigger than either parent, ft in length - making it the biggest hybrid cat and, for many people, the most fascinating.
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 23 of 26 Tigon Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall A tigon is the offspring of a tiger and a lioness.
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 24 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall s Beefalo is a species cross between Bison (buffalo) and domestic cattle of any breed. The purpose of the species cross was to blend the outstanding qualities of the Bison with outstanding qualities of the bovine breeds of the world.
18-1 Finding Order in Diversity Slide 25 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall A zebroid is a cross between a zebra and any other equid: essentially, a zebra hybrid. They are also known as zebra mules. In general, the sire is a zebra stallion. zebroid

Slide 34 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Modern scientist who classify, taxonomist, use the following: 1. Homologous Structures -Homo means… -the same -similar structures with different functions

Slide 40 of 26 New Classification Schemes Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Taxonomy: -is the study of classification -to organize all living organisms based on their morphology (structures) and phylogeny (evolutionary trend) Phylogeny: -Is the evolutionary history of a species.
Slide 41 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Two approaches to Phylogenetic Classification: 1.Creating a Phylogenic Tree -Each successive group, taxon, should be represented by finer and finer branches all stemming from a common ancestor. Creates a “tree of life”. -branches based on: *biochemical evidence *homologous structures *common embryology
Slide 42 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Slide 43 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Slide 44 of 26 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 2. Creating a cladogram Uses certain features of an organism called shared derived characteristics. Shared derived characteristics are features that apparently evolved only within the group under consideration. Example: Feathers….. birds are the only animals that have feathers therefore it separates it from all other vertebrates.
