How we organize organisms…
Taxonomy How we organize organisms…
2
Living Things Grow and develop Reproduce
Obtain and use materials and energy Respond to their environment Change over time Are based on a universal genetic code Are made up of units called cells Let’s Review More
3
How are Living Things Organized?
According to the 6 Kingdom system of classification.
4
What are the 6 KINGDOMS? Animalia Plantae Fungi Protista Eubacteria
Archaebacteria
5
How are the Kingdoms Organized?
Type of Cell prokaryotic/eukaryotic # of Cells - unicellular/multicellular Feeding - autotrophic/heterotrophic-
6
What is a Prokaryotic Cell?
What is a Eukaryotic Cell? No Nucleus Nucleus
7
What is Multicellular? What is Unicellular? More than one cell Only one cell
8
Do NOT make their own food
What is a Heterotroph? What is an Autotroph? Make their own food Do NOT make their own food
9
What is Kingdom Animalia? (that’s us!)
10
What are the Characteristics of the Animalia Kingdom?
Terrestrial and aquatic Multicellular Heterotrophic Eukaryotic Do NOT have cell walls
11
What is the Plantae Kingdom?
Plants ! The green stuff!
12
What are the Characteristics of the Plantae Kingdom?
Terrestrial and aquatic, requiring sunlight Multicellular Autotrophic Eukaryotic Have cell walls with cellulose (that’s roughage to you & me)
13
What is the Kingdom Fungi? (the great recyclers)
Ringworm Rhizopus
14
What are the Characteristics of the Fungi Kingdom?
Terrestrial, in warm, moist conditions MOST multicellular, a few unicellular (yeasts) Heterotrophic Eukaryotic Have cell walls with chitin
15
What is Kingdom Protista? (a little of everything)
Euglena Amoeba Vorticella
16
What are the Characteristics of the Protista Kingdom?
Mostly aquatic MOST unicellular, a few multicellular Some autotrophic & others heterotrophic Eukaryotic Some have cell walls with cellulose, some do not have cell walls at all
17
What is Kingdom Eubacteria previously known as Monera.
E. coli Nostoc (photosynthetic)
18
What are the Characteristics of the Eubacteria Kingdom?
Found most everywhere (and most are not harmful!) Unicellular Some autotrophic & others heterotrophic Prokaryotic
19
What is Kingdom Archaebacteria The extremophiles!
Thermophiles Yellowstone N.P. Hot Springs Halophiles in Great Salt Lake, Utah
20
What are the Characteristics of the Archaebacteria Kingdom?
Found in extreme environments where other organisms cannot live Unicellular Some autotrophic & others heterotrophic Prokaryotic
22
What is Classification?
Grouping of objects or information based on similarities. In Biology this is called Taxonomy.
23
What is Taxonomy? The branch of biology concerned with the grouping and naming of organisms
24
Who is Linnaeus? Father of modern taxonomy
Developed the method of classification that is used today. Classified organisms based on physical characteristics Created the 7 taxonomic categories:
25
What is Linnaeus’ System
of Classification King Philip Came Over For Great Spaghetti Taxon – each level within a naming system. Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species
