1 Classification Kingdoms and Classes
Objective: Classification is sorting out all organisms into groups according to the similarities between them. Organisms are divided into two main kingdoms: the animal kingdom and the plant kingdom which in turn can further be divided until species level is reached

2 Animals Plants Monorans Organisms Protists Fungi
Jellyfish, worms, arthropods, molluscs, echinoderms, amphibians, fish, reptiles, birds and mammals. Seed bearing plants and non-seed bearing plants Plants Organisms Monorans Bacteria and primitive algae Protists Single-celled organisms Fungi Moulds, mushrooms and toadstools

3 Animals Vertebrates Invertebrates

4 Mammals Vertebrates Have body hair or fur Have mammary glands that produce milk Warm blooded

5 Fish Vertebrates Live in water Breathe with gills Streamlined bodies Have cartilage or bony skeleton Cold blooded Mostly lay eggs

6 Reptiles Vertebrates Have dry, scaly skins Egg laying Breathe with lungs Cold blooded

7 Amphibians Vertebrates Moist skin Lay their eggs in water Larvae have gills and live in water Adults have lungs and live on land Cold blooded

8 Birds Vertebrates Have feathers and wings Lay eggs with hard shells Breathe with lungs Warm blooded

9 Animals Vertebrates Invertebrates

10 Invertebrates Hollow bodied Mouth is the only body opening and is surrounded by tentacles Uses sting cells to paralyse prey Cnidarians

11 Invertebrates Flat thin bodies Digestive system has only one opening Animals are both male and females Mostly parasites Flatworms

12 Invertebrates Rounded bodied Bodies have 2 openings Almost all are parasites Round Worms

13 Invertebrates Bodies are divided into segments Bodies have 2 openings Segmented Worms

14 Invertebrates Not segmented Body in three continuous parts with head, body and foot Have one or two shells Mollusks

15 Invertebrates Spiny skinned Body in five parts Central mouth with respiratory gills Echinoderms

16 Invertebrates Hard exo-skeleton on outside of body Has eyes and mouth Body divided into more than one segment Arthropods Centipedes & Millipedes Crustaceans Arachnids Insects

17 Animals Invertebrates Vertebrates Cnidarians Mammals Worms Fish
Reptiles Mollusks Amphibians Echinoderms Birds Arthropods
