Classification Taxonomy – classifying organisms into universally accepted groups Why? 1.Universal Naming system 2.Study in a logical manner 3.Reveal evolutionary relationships

Classification Groups (Taxon) Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species Species – a group of organisms that can reproduce with one another and make fertile offspring.

History of Classification Aristotle – 1 st to classify as plant or animal Linnaeus – Binomial Nomenclature – 1758 genus species Ex: Panthera pardus Canis familiaris Canis lupus

Follow process and procedure on page 74. You are figuring out a way to classify the objects at your table. Come up with a scheme and write it down on the white board and then turn it over You can leave your writing implements grouped on the table You have 10 minutes to discuss and come up with a scheme. If you finish early, discuss other possibilities. We will switch with nearest group when times up.

Discussion – Was there a right way? Explain. What did the classification schemes seem to depend on most? Why do you think this? What is another example of classification in your everyday life?

Discussion REMEMBER- Biologist use the following classification scheme for living organisms ( Kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species) Kingdom – Grocery Store Phylum - Dry Foods Class - Breakfast Order - Cereal Family - General Mills Genus - Kids Species - Lucky Charms

Do Now 11/23 Hierarchy - a system in which people or things are placed in a series of levels with different importance or status 1.Who is more closely related? 2. What do these organisms ALL have in common? 3. Where do these organisms start to differ in the biological hierarchy? 4. What do you think the scientific name for the Grevy’s Zebra would be?

Organize actual species into a biological hierarchy. Hints: Group organisms first. Use page 76, notes, and essay on 141 if you get stuck. Once they are grouped, start on yellow paper ( 3 on P&P) You have 9 species, so 9 spaces will be filled with your species, the rest you have to come up with an example. Once completed, Mrs. Kimble will give you a key to check your work. Make changes and add scientific names if necessary 11/12/14Page 50 Using Unity to Organize Diversity Part B 1.√ 2.

How do you know from the names that the species are related? 3. Who is more closely related, the owl and vulture or the hawk and vulture: support your answer with evidence. 4. Can a Cooper’s Hawk mate and have fertile offspring with a red-tailed hawk? Why or why not?

Discussion Get into lab groups, take your notebook. Choose 1 job for each person once you are gathered - recorder – record group ideas - spokesperson – speaks to the group - task manager – keeps group on task and watches time - encourager - encourages everyone to contribute If only 2 people then double up on jobs, 3 people ( first three jobs) You will have 3 minutes to read responses to each other and record a group response on the whiteboard. After everyone has read their responses, make additions or corrections in red pen. When time is called the spokesperson will read the groups response to the class. ( Remember to be active listeners)

Conclusion I can organize organisms based on ______,_____,_______. I can do this by _________________________. Classification helps biologists by ___________.

Ways to Classify 1.Dichotomous Key - divided into groups of 2 from general to specific, until organism is identified 2. Cladogram or Phylogenic tree – family tree that shows evolutionary relationships – branches off at main differences in features.

Do Now – 11/7 Pick up the science reasoning question. Answer the questions on your Do Now paper. Please read quietly. The first person to talk without raising their hand and getting permission after the bell rings is the last to leave class today.
