1. Bell ringer
What is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear, or see, the word “Marine”?

2. Was it this???

3. Or was it this??

4. The word “Marine”:
Refers to; anything of, found in, or produced by the sea.

5. Marine Biology vs. Oceanography
Marine Biology is the study of life in the ocean.
Oceanography is the study of the physical characteristics of the ocean
Sir Charles Thompson is considered to be the “Father of Oceanography”.

6. Physical Characteristics of Water
Color
Temperature
Turbidity- cloudiness
Salinity- saltiness
Pressure
Currents
Density

7. The Water Planet Our Earth is made up of 71% water.
Most of that water is marine (salt).
Less than 10% of the Earth’s water is freshwater.
Of that 10% less than 3% is drinkable! What is the other 7%?

8. Let’s go to the Video!

9. End INVESTIGATION! When Ms.Lau says go:
I will have three minutes to put the pictures of various organisms into three groups based on how similar YOU think they are!
I will work with my team to get the most similar organisms in a group!
3 minutes
End

10. Why is it important to classify the information that we know about these organisms?

11. There are 8.7 million different species on this Earth.
……..that we KNOW of!!!!

12. Organisms have been evolving for millions of years.
There are about million species of organisms.
So, how do we go about organizing all of these organisms?

13. Carolus Linnaeus (1707-1778) Created Taxonomy
Taxonomy: system by which organisms are classified
Why do you think there are more species today?
Why is having a single system to classify organisms important?

14. Taxonomy: system by which organisms are classified

15. Naming System A Hierarchical system.
Domain - (broadest area) Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species – (most specific area)
Every organism is grouped in each of these categories.

16. Let's Memorize It! Dear King Phillip Came Over For Grape Soda Domain
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species

17. Which level is the most broad? Explain

18. How are organisms named?
Binomial Nomenclature= the way organisms are named
First Word=Genus
Second Word=Species
EX: The Panthera tigris walks on 4 legs and is heterotrophic.
THE POINT OF THIS SLIDE. Let students know that if they see this long latin word on the test that it means nothing then it being an organism. They just need to figure out how it is classified.

19. We are only focusing on……..
Domain
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species

20. Domains
There are three Domains that all living things are classified under.

21. The Domains are then divided into _______
kingdoms
Archaea
Archaebacteria
Bacteria
Eubacteria
Eukarya
Protista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia

22. Eukarya
Eubacteria and Archaebacteria

23. Archaebacteria Unicellular Asexual Reproduction Autotrophic
Oldest known living organism
Live in extreme conditions (hot, freezing, salty, anaerobic)

24. Bacteria Unicellular Asexual Reproduction Autotrophic with Cell Walls
Peptidogylcan
Live in a variety of environments.
Examples:
Salmonella, E. Coli

25. Peptidoglycan, also known as murein, is a polymer consisting of sugars and amino acids that forms a mesh-like layer outside the plasma membrane of most bacteria, forming the cell wall.

26. There are two type of Bacteria

27. Eukarya Unicellular or Multicellular Asexual and/or Sexual
Autotrophic or Heterotrophic
Their genetic material is made of DNA, which causes them to be the most diverse domain!

28. Eukarya is Divided into 4 Kingdoms
K=FAPP
4 Kingdoms
Fungi
Animalia
Plantae
Protista
hydrophytes

29. K=FAPP: Fungi Multicellular Both Asexual or Sexual
Absorptive Heterotrophs
Chitin
Examples:
Mushrooms, Yeast, Mold

30. K=FAPP: Animalia Multicellular Ingestive Heterotrophs Examples:
Homo Sapiens, Cheetahs, Birds

31. K=FAPP Plantae Multicellular Autotrophic Cellulose
Through what process?
Photosynthesis!
Cellulose
Examples: Spruce Trees, Grass, Sunflowers

32. K=FAPP Protista Most are unicellular and some multicellular
Like Plants (cellulose), Like Animals (no cell walls)
Some heterotrophic and some autotrophic
Examples:
Algae
Protozoa

33. Show Me What You Got! These organisms have membrane-bound organelles.
1= Archaebacteria
2= Bacteria
3= Eukarya
These organisms have membrane-bound organelles.
These organisms are considered the oldest organisms alive
These organisms have cell walls made of peptidoglycan
These organisms can be unicellular or multicellular

34. Show Me What You Got! These organisms conduct photosynthesis!
1= Fungi
3= Plantae
2= Animalia
4= Protists
These organisms conduct photosynthesis!
I am a Eukaryote that is unicellular, mobile, and an autotroph. What am I?
I am a decomposer that has cell walls made of Chitin.
These organisms can be unicellular or multicellular

36. Guess Who?
Oh NOOOOOO! There has been a kidnapping! Dory has been captured and taken from her Family! We must figure out the perpetrator!
Figure out what Domain and Kingdom the perpetrator is in!
There are 6 clues around the room
You will have 12 minutes to travel around the room to try to answer as many of the clues as possible
