Classification Review

List the seven levels of classification from largest to smallest. Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species

Identify the six kingdoms. Archaebacteria Eubacteria Protists Fungi Plants Animals

Explain one difference between plants and fungi. Plants are autotrophic. Fungi are heterotrophic.

1. What is the name of the method used to today to name organisms? Binomial nomenclature 2. Who devised this system of naming organisms? Carolus Linnaeaus 3. What does the scientific name of an organism consist of? Genus species

Identify the kingdom each organism belongs to. 1.Yeast 2.Maple tree 3.Mushroom 4.Lizard 5.Paramecium 6.Found in hot springs 7.Moss 8.Insect 9.Amoeba 10.Bacteria that causes strep throat 11.Algae Fungi Plants Fungi Animal Protists Archaebacteria Plants Animal Protists Eubacteria Protists

Explain the differences between a kingdom and a species. A kingdom is the largest level while species is the smallest level. A kingdom is made up of the largest number of organisms while a species contains the smallest number. A kingdom consists of organisms that are not very similar to each other while a species consists of organisms that are most similar to each other.

1. List two characteristics of a kingdom. 2. Why is a species considered the most specific level? 3. The scientific name of the clouded leopard is Neofelis nebulosa. What is the organism’s genus and species? LARGEST TAXON CONSISTS OF ORGANISMS THAT ARE VERY DIVERSE ORGANISMS ARE VERY SIMILAR GENUS  Neofelis SPECIES  nebulosa

Compare (how they are similar) and contrast (how they are different) archaea and eubacteria. They are both unicellular. They are both prokaryotic. Archaea live in extreme environments. Eubacteria are very common.

Which kingdom consists of organisms in which its genetic information is found in the cytoplasm? a.Fungi b.Archaebacteria c.Protist d.Plant
