Classifying Organisms How do scientists classify all of the organisms on Earth?

Why Classify Living Things?  The study of classifying organisms into different categories is called taxonomy.  THINK! – What are some examples of how people use classification systems in their daily lives? Supermarkets Libraries Computer Files  THINK! – Why would scientists want to use a classification system for living organisms? To make it easier for them to study and organize living things

Levels of Classification  Scientists use 7 levels of classification  The top level is the broadest (widest) while the bottom level is the most specific (narrow).

Levels of Classification Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species King Philip Came Over From Germany Sick mnemonic

Example of Classification  THINK! – What do you notice about the number of organisms in each category as you move down the classification table? The number of organisms becomes smaller and so the category becomes more specific.

Naming Organisms  Carl Linnaeus came up with a way to name organisms based on observable characteristics.  His naming system was called binomial nomenclature meaning “two names naming system.”  The first name is the organism’s genus. It is always capitalized and italicized  The second name is the organism’s species. It is always lowercase and italicized 2/ namenaming/system

Levels of Classification Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species King Philip Came Over From Germany Sick mnemonic Binomial nomenclature

Scientific Name Game  Can you match the animal with its scientific name? Felis domesticus Canis lupus Ursus horribilis Loxodonta africana Canis familaris Panthera leo

Six Kingdoms  Today’s classification system has 6 Kingdoms.  Watch this BRAIN POP clip titled: “Six Kingdoms.” As you watch, fill in the 6 kingdom names in the blank spaces on your guided notes.BRAIN POP clip titled: “Six Kingdoms  THINK! – Can you name the 6 kingdoms? Archaebacteria  Ancient bacteria - Eubacteria  New Bacteria – Protista  Amoebas & Paramecium Fungi  Mushrooms, Molds, Mildews Plantae  Mosses, Ferns, Cone-bearing, Flowering Animalia  Invertebrates & Vertebrates live in extreme/harsh conditions live everywhere you do
