1. Characteristics of living things made of one or more cells
It’s ALIVE!!!!!!!!
Why?
Characteristics of living things
made of one or more cells
obtain and use energy
grow and develop
reproduce
respond to their environment
adapt to their environment
Just for
Over 1.5 MILLION animal species exist
Humans make up %
of all living things!!!!

2. Classified Information
Classification of Living Things
ARISTOTLE - *4th century B.C. (384 to322 B.C.)
*Greek philosopher
*divided organisms into 2 groups - plants and animals
*divided animals into blood and bloodless
*also divided animals into 3 groups according to how they move
-walking, flying, or swimming
*his system was used into the 1600s
CAROLUS LINNAEUS - *18th century
*Swedish scientist
*divided living things into one of two "kingdoms"
- plant and animal kingdoms
*his classification system is still used today;
however, we use a 6 kingdom system (instead of 2 kingdom system.)

3. Each level contains organisms with similar characteristics
7 Different Levels
kingdom
phylum
class
order
family
genus
species
Each level contains organisms with similar characteristics
kingdom is the largest group and very broad
Each successive group contains fewer, more similar organisms
species is the smallest group and is very narrow
- organisms within a species are able to reproduce

4. KINGDOM: Animalia. PHYLUM: Chordata. CLASS: Mammalia. ORDER: Primata

6. BACTERIA - Archaebacteria and Eubacteria
6 Kingdoms
BACTERIA - Archaebacteria and Eubacteria
*1 cell
*no true nucleus
*some move; others don't
*some make own food (autotrophic); others can't make own food (heterotrophic)
*examples - bacteria; blue-green bacteria (cyanobacteria)

7. *some move (cilia, flagella, pseudopod); others don't
PROTISTA
*1 cell
*have a true nucleus
*some move (cilia, flagella, pseudopod); others don't
*some are autotrophic; others are heterotrophic
*examples - amoeba, diatom, euglena, paramecium,
some algae (unicellular), etc.

8. FUNGI
*multicellular
*have nuclei
*mainly do not move from place to place
*heterotrophic (food is digested outside of fungus)
*examples - mushroom, mold, puffball, yeast, etc.

9. *examples - multicellular algae, mosses, ferns,
PLANTAE
*multicellular
*have nuclei
*do not move
*autotrophic
*examples - multicellular algae, mosses, ferns,
flowering plants (dandelions, roses, etc.),
trees, etc.

10. *examples - sponge, jellyfish, insect, fish, frog, bird
ANIMALIA
*multicellular
*have nuclei
*do move
*heterotrophic
*examples - sponge, jellyfish, insect, fish, frog, bird

11. Phylum for Kingdom Animalia
Porifera Cnidaria Ctenophora
(sponges) (jellyfish) (sea walnut)

12. Platyhelminthes Nematoda Bryozoa
(tape worms) (round worms) (moss animals)
         

13. Mollusca Annelida Arthropoda (octopus) (earth worms) (insects)

14. Echinodermata Chordata (sea urchins) (us)

15. Classes of Phylum Chordata
Cephalaspidomorphi
circular mouth has sucking disc, no jaw, no paired fins, one nostril.
Myxini
circular mouth has barbles, no jaw, no paired fins, one nostril, no eyes
Chondrichthyes
skeleton made of cartilage, jaws, paired fins, paired nostrils, scales, two- chambered heart

16. Osteichthyes
skeleton made of bone, jaws, fins, most with scales, two-chambered heart
Amphibia
begin life in the water, gills replaced by lungs in the adult form, lay eggs, three- chambered heart
Reptilia
thick, scaly or platelike skin; ectothermic (cold-blooded); embryo develops in the shell (young born live or hatch from egg); four-chambered heart

17. Aves
outer covering of feathers, endothermic (warm- blooded), have front limbs modified as wings, lay eggs, four-chambered heart
Mammalia
breathe air, have hair at some stage of development, give live birth, mammary glands, endothermic (warm-blooded), four-chambered heart

18. What’s in a name?
binomial ("two names") nomenclature("system of naming")
Genus species
Genus is always capitalized
species is never capitalized
must be either underlined or in italics
