Explain your thinking. Describe the “rule” or reasoning you used to decide if something is an animal

2. Taxonomy & Classification
Let’s See YOUR NOTES

3. Why Classify? Work with a diversity of life
Organizes organisms in a logical manner
Assign a universal accepted name to each organism

4. Biological Classification
Aristotle was one of the first people to classify living organisms
According to physical characteristics
Carolus Linnaeus developed a system of naming that we still use today
This system is called Binomial Nomenclature (two name naming system)

5. Binomial Nomenclature
Each organism has a two part name
1. The genus is the first name and is ALWAYS capitalized
2. The species is the second part of the name and is lower case
3. Both names are either underlined or italicized
4. Example: Human = Homo sapien
Homo = the genus
sapien= species

6. Linnaeus Grouped them according to the body structures they shared
1. The groups are called taxa
2. The smallest taxa is the species
Taxonomy: the science of naming organisms

7. Bigger Than Kingdoms 3 Domains to classify organisms under:
Archaea: includes the kingdom Archaeabacteria
Bacteria: includes the kingdom Eubacteria
Eukarya: includes the kingdoms protista, fungi, plantae, animalia

8. The system of grouping organisms is as follows:
1. Kingdom
2. Phylum
3. Class
4. Order
5. Family
6. Genus
7. Species
Human Classification
1. Kingdom – Animalia
2. Phylum – Chordata
3. Class – Mammalia
4. Order – Primates
5. Family – Hominidia
6. Genus – Homo
7. Species - sapien

9. There are 6 Kingdoms!
1. Archaebacterial- ancient bacteria that live in extreme environments
2. Eubacteria- bacteria and blue-green algae
3. Protista- paramecium, amoeba, euglena, volvox and spirogyra
4. Fungi- mushrooms and yeast
5. Plantae- plants
6. Animalia- vertebrates (backbone) & invertebrates (no backbone)

14. Pamishan Creatures How do I read a dichotomous key?
Pamishan Creatures (practice)

15. Viruses: The Exception
Viruses are NOT living so they don’t fit into any kingdom
Made of a protein coat called a capsid and nucleic acid (DNA or RNA)
Example of a virus = bacteriophage
Bacteriophages attack bacteria

16. More on Viruses Viruses are pathogens (disease causing)
Specific viruses affect specific organisms (hosts)
Ex. A plant virus can’t infect an animal unless it mutates (Avian Flu) Bird Flu

17. Life Cycle of a Virus
In order to reproduce, viruses must invade or infect a living host cell
1. Start of infection: virus DNA enters the host cell (protein coat does not)
2. Virus enzymes destroy the hosts DNA but not it’s own.
3. Replication: virus makes copies of itself
A. can occur as fast as 25 minutes depending on the virus
4. The infected cell bursts and releases hundreds of virus particles that infect other cells

19. Animal Symmetry Radial Symmetry- simplest animals have this
No real head
Many are sessile (don’t move)
Body parts repeat around an imaginary line drawn through the center of the body

20. Bilateral Symmetry More complex animals have this
Body parts repeat on either side of an imaginary line drawn down the middle of the body
One side is the mirror image of the other

21. Animals with bilateral symmetry have front and back ends
Anterior- front end
Posterior- back end
Dorsal- upper side
Ventral- lower side

22. Cephalization
a concentration of organs and nerve cells in their head region
Most animals have this characteristic
