Species of Organisms There are 13 billion known species of organisms This is only 5% of all organisms that ever lived!!!!! New organisms are still being found and identified copyright cmassengale 2 2

What is Taxonomy? Taxonomy is the arrangement of organisms into orderly groups based on their similarities Taxonomy is also known as classification. Taxonomists are scientists that identify & name organisms copyright cmassengale 3 3

4 What are the benefits of Classifying?
Accurately & uniformly names organisms Prevents misconceptions such as starfish & jellyfish that aren't really fish Uses same language (Latin or Greek) for all names Sea”horse”?? copyright cmassengale 4 4

5 Confusion in Using Different Languages for Names
copyright cmassengale 5 5

6 Latin Names are Understood by all Taxonomists
copyright cmassengale 6 6

7 copyright cmassengale
Early Taxonomists 2000 years ago, Aristotle was the first taxonomist Aristotle divided organisms into plants & animals He subdivided them by their habitat ---land, sea, or air dwellers copyright cmassengale 7 7

8 Carolus Linnaeus 1707 – 1778 “Father of Taxonomy”
Classified organisms by their structure Developed naming system still used today- Binomial Nomeclature 8 8

9 Binomial Nomenclature
Two-word name Consists of Genus species Latin or Greek Italicized in print Capitalize genus, but NOT species copyright cmassengale 9 9

11 Binomial Nomenclature
Which TWO are more closely related? copyright cmassengale 11 11

12 How are organisms grouped?
Taxon ( taxa-plural) is a category into which related organisms are placed There is a hierarchy of groups (taxa) from broadest to most specific Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, species 12 12

14 Hierarchy-Taxonomic Groups
Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species BROADEST TAXON Genus and species are the two names used to identify specific organisms in the binomial system of classification. Division is used for plants. Most Specific copyright cmassengale 14 14

16 copyright cmassengale
Domains Broadest, most inclusive taxon Three domains Archaea and Bacteria are unicellular prokaryotes (no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles) Eukarya are more complex and have a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles copyright cmassengale 16 16
