Taxonomy & Kingdoms Pretest
3
1.A new species has been spotted in the rainforest of Costa Rica. It is multicellular, eats bugs and runs 10 miles per hour. What kingdom would this organism be in? A.Kingdom Fungi B.Kingdom Animalia C.Kingdom Eubacteria D.Kingdom Plantae E.Kingdom Protista
4
2.The organism Felis concolor is a member of the genus A.concolor B.Animalia C.Mammalia D.Felis E.Eubacteria
5
3.If a scientist finds a new organism that has never been seen before, he must classify that organism. The first decisions he must make are what domain and kingdom the organism belongs in. If the organism has a nucleus in all of its cells, is quite large and multicellular, and is heterotrophic he will start by placing it in A.Domain Archaea, Kingdom Animalia B.Domain Eukaryota, Kingdom Plantae C.Domain Eukaryota, Kingdom Eubacteria D.Domain Eukarya, Kingdom Animalia
6
4.Carl Linnaeus developed the naming system for organisms that we still use today called A.binomial nomenclature B.geniation C.speciation D.organizational naming E.phylogeny
7
5.The science of naming and classifying organisms is called A.dichotomy B.phylogeny C.taxonomy D.classing E.etymology
8
6.Cells of all bacteria are A.prokaryotic B.eukaryotic C.large D.disease producers E.deadly
9
7.Which two organisms in the figure are most DISTANTLY related? A.Sharks and Amphibians B.Crocodiles and Primates C.Crocodiles and Sharks D.Primates and Rodents E.Amphibians and Dinosaurs
10
8.The correct order for the levels of classification is A.domain, kingdom, family, order, genus, species B.domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species C.kingdom, phylum, order, class, family, genus, species D.domain, kingdom, phylum, order, family, species, genus E.species, family, genus, order, phylum, class, domain, kingdom

9.Genetics is A) The process of reading DNA to assemble amino acids into proteins B) The most beneficial traits will be passed on to the next generation C) Change in a biological population over time D) The process of maintaining stable internal conditions E) The study of inheritance
12
10.Be able to use a dichotomous key very well. After determining which type of currency this is, write the number and letter of the key which finally took you to the correct answer. 1 A. Metal....................................................go to 2 1 B. Paper....................................................go to 5 2 A.
