4. ß b. All names in Latin c. He put together the Genus and the ________________ name d. Always written - Homo sapiens 1. Capitalize Genus Name 2. Lower case species name 3. Underline both or italicize Genus and species a. He gave each organism a __________________________ using Binomial Nomenclature - (two word name)

5. Why Binomial Nomenclature? England - RobinNorth America - Robin Erithacus rubiculaTurdus migratorius Scientific Names avoid ______________ -different animals with same name

6. Sand dollar Seahorse Scientific Names avoid confusion -___________________________

7. Puma, cougar, or mountain lion? Puma concolor Scientific Names avoid confusion - one animal with __________ names

8. Species ßTwo organisms are the same ___________ if they can breed and produce fertile offspring. Felis domesticus Puma concolor (can’t breed with other two – not same species)

9. Phylum Chordata ßThe most obvious characteristics of the Phylum Chordata are… 1.A dorsal, hollow nerve cord (spinal cord) 2.A notochord (_____________________) All of these organisms belong to the phylum Chordata.

10. Kingdom Animalia ßCharacteristics are... 1.Multicellular 2.Heterotrophic – get food from other sources 3.No __________________________ 4.Most are motile at some point in their life ßSome examples are … sponges worm jellyfish

11. ßKingdom ß______________ ßClass ßOrder ß________________ ßGenus ßSpecies Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species 7 Levels of taxonomy from largest to smallest

12. ßEach level is called a taxon ßThe largest is the ______________ ßThe smallest (most specific) is the species ßScientific name = Genus species

13. ßKingdom ßPhylum ßClass ßOrder ßFamily ßGenus ßSpecies How can I remember these? Make a silly sentence… King Phillip Came Over For Great Spaghetti King Phillip Came Over For Good Soup

14. Domains ßNote: domain is larger than kingdom ßThe 3 domains are: ß _________________ ßArchaea ßEukarya

17. 2.) What taxon holds more species- a kingdom or a phylum? 3.) What taxon holds more species- a class or a family?

18. 4.) Based on the following names, you know that the baboons Papia annubis and Papia cynocephalus do NOT belong to the same a.) class b.) family c.) genus d.) species 5.) How can you remember the order of KPCOFGS? Practice writing out the levels or organization from the largest group to the smallest.
