6
Classification: Organizing the Unity & Diversity of Life
7
Why organize? Since Darwin – Known species increased to 1.8 million Millions more to be discovered Tropics & deep sea
8
Systematics Science of naming & grouping organisms – To understand diversity – To organize by evolutionary relationships Taxonomy – Naming & grouping by criteria such as appearance
9
Naming & Grouping Naming: Genus species – Common names confusing not universal – Ex. Cougar, puma, panther, mountain lion = Felis concolor http://www.exoticcatz.com/photoalbum/albums/userpics/10001/normal_cougar~0.jpg Felis concolor
10
International confusion http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/staticfiles/ In UK, “buzzard” = hawk http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2062/1895127243_b8956555d3.jpg In US, “buzzard” = vulture
11
Binomial nomenclature: (2-part scientific name) Developed by – Linnaeus – Swedish botanist You should know: – In Latin – In italics – 2 parts: Genus – Group of closely related species species – Description of habitat or important trait
12

14
Taxa = ranking level Originally, Linnaeus had 4 levels Now = 7 taxa KingdomKing PhylumPhillip ClassCame OrderOver FamilyFor GenusGood speciesspaghetti
15
Kingdoms then & now Then – 2 kingdoms Plants Animals Now – More kingdoms added as knowledge increases – 6 kingdoms Eubacteria Archaebacteria Protista Fungi Plantae Animalia
16
Domains Larger category than kingdoms 3 domains recognized – domain Bacteria: Eubacteria – domain Archaea: Archaebacteria – domain Eukarya: Fungi, Plantae, Animalia, “Protista”
17
Modern Evolutionary Classification Darwin’s “tree of life” – Descent with modification Phylogeny = grouping by evolutionary descent – Share more recent common ancestor – Clade = includes all species from common ancestor http://mikeely.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/darwins_first_tree_of_life.jpg
18
Cladogram Shows how evolutionary lines branched off from common ancestors Branch point (node) – Speciation Root – Common ancestor
19
DNA in classification Shared genes determine evolutionary relationships – Ex. All Eukaryotic cells have mitochondria Mitochondria have their own genes Genes mutate over time Shared genes show how recently organisms shared common ancestor
