1. **Pick up the following: - a bell ringer - a supply box - your notebook **Checkpoint today – have your game face on! Happy Wednesday! **Taxonomy homework due to the tray.

2. 1. What is taxonomy? 2. Why is taxonomy important?

3. Label the 8 Taxonomic Levels of Classification SpecificSpecific SpecificSpecific

4. 4. Scientists group organisms together based on their _____________________. 5. What is the scientific name for humans? Circle the genus. Underline the species. 6. Which two organisms are most related to each other? Canis lupus, Musca domestica, Canis rufus

5. Animalia Fungi Eubacteria Plantae Protista Archaebacteria

6. Prokaryote Eukaryote Unicellular Multicellular Autotroph Heterotroph

7.  What type of cell?  Eukaryote or prokaryote  How many cells?  Unicellular or multicellular  How does it eat?  Autotroph or heterotroph It’s also useful to know some unique facts…

8.  What type of cell?  Eukaryote  How many cells?  Multicellular  How does it eat?  Heterotroph (ingests food) No cell wall Mobile

9.  What type of cell?  Eukaryote  How many cells?  Multicellular  How does it eat?  Autotroph Chloroplasts (can perform photosynthesis) Cell wall = cellulose Large central vacuole Not mobile

10.  What type of cell?  Eukaryote  How many cells?  Multicellular (except yeast)  How does it eat?  Heterotroph (absorbs food through root like structures known as hypae) Decomposers Cell wall = chitin Not mobile

11.  What type of cell?  Eukaryote  How many cells?  Unicellular or Multicellular  How does it eat?  Autotroph or Heterotroph Mobile with the aid of cilia or flagella NO specialized tissue

12.  What type of cell?  Prokaryote  How many cells?  Unicellular  How does it eat?  Autotroph or heterotroph Can cause disease Cell wall = peptidoglycan Mobile with the aid of cilia or flagella

13.  What type of cell?  Prokaryote  How many cells?  Unicellular  How does it eat?  Autotroph or heterotroph Live in EXTREME environments like thermal vents, salty places

14.  I have a complicated network of Hyphae that make up my body. I stand tall when compared to some grasses. Cells walled with chitin support my body. The chitin also protects me from enemies and the suns damage. (I do not like dry environments) My DNA in encapsulated in a large membrane bound organelle. Photosynthetic organisms frequently surround me but I am not one. Kingdom FUNGI

15.  I am one large compartmentalized cell. I move quickly and gracefully with the assistance of tiny cilia. I have membrane bound organelles and all of my genetic information is neatly packaged. I have a mouth but no teeth and can gather nutrition from the surrounding area. I can be silly but you cannot tell unless you have a microscope. Kingdom Protista

16.  I am a single celled individual living at extreme temperature under water. I can live in temperature approaching boiling. Because of my unorganized inside I am considered to be a Prokaryote. Sometimes I feel that I have more in common with eukaryotes than bacteria… but neither of them can live were I do! Kingdom Archaebacteria

17. 3 things you need to know to identify which kingdom an organism belongs to… TermDefinition Cell that has no nucleus Cell that has membrane bound organelles like a nucleus Made of one cell Made of many cells Uses photosynthesis to make its own food Must consume other organisms for food Identifying Kingdoms: 1.What type of cell? 2.How many cells? 3.How does it eat? 4.Unique facts
