1
Carl Linnaeus 1707-1778 BBBBorn in Sweden CCCCarl Linnaeus is known as? "The Father of Taxonomy.“ FFFFirst scientist to use the system of bionomial nomenclature or “…………….” system? “Two name”
2
What is Binomial nomenclature ? “BI” = two “NOMIAL” = name SSSSystem of naming organisms by using two words: 1st word: GG eeee nnnn uuuu ssss - capitalized 2nd word: ss pppp eeee cccc iiii eeee ssss - lowercase B B B Both written in italics. What is the scientific name for humans? Homo sapiens
3
Why do scientists use Binomial Nomenclature? IIIIt makes it easy for scientists to communicate about an organism because everyone uses the same name for the same organism WWWWhat is the correct name of this wild cat? a. Puma b. Cougar c. Mountain Lion TTTThe correct scientific name is………. Felis concolor AAAAnd, it is a Mountain Lion
4
What is Taxonomy? TTTTaxonomy is the science of naming, describing and classifying organisms which includes: P P P Plants A A A Animals F F F Fungi P P P Protists M M M Microorganisms of the world
5
What is Classification? Process of grouping organisms based on their similarities Today scientists can classify organisms classify organisms based on their genetic based on their genetic or DNA similarities or DNA similarities
6
- Domains and Kingdoms Three Domains of Life Domain is the highest or broadest level of classification There are three types of Domains: Modern Bacteria Ancient Bacteria
7
The Eight levels of Classification DDDDomain: * Largest level * Not related at all KKKKingdom: PPPPhylum: CCCClass: OOOOrder: FFFFamily: GGGGenus: SSSSpecies: * Smallest number of members * Closely related * Can reproduce
8
Animal classification….. Sumatran Tiger: Pathera tigris DDDDomain: Eukarya KKKKingdom: Animalia PPPPhylum: Chordata CCCClass: Mammalia OOOOrder: Carnivora FFFFamily: Felidae GGGGenus: Pathera SSSSpecies: tigris
9
How can I learn the levels of classification? Use an Acronym! Domain: Did Kingdom: King Phylum: Philip Class: Come Order: Over Family: For Genus: Good Species: Spaghetti? Can you make your own acronym to help you learn the levels classification?
10
Review QuestionAnswer Why do scientists classify? Scientists classify to help organize living things into groups so they are easier to study What system did Linnaeus use to name organisms ? He used a system called binomial nomenclature He used a system called binomial nomenclature. What are the levels of classification? Domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species
11
Review QuestionAnswer What is a Domain? The highest or broadest level of classification What are the 3 domains? BacteriaArchaeEukarya What is Taxonomy? The science of naming, describing and classifying organisms
12
HOMEWORK Come up with your own acronym for the eight acronym for the eight levels of classification levels of classification Due: Tomorrow
13
The Six Kingdoms
14
When Carolus Linnaeus developed his system of classification, there were only two kingdoms: Plants and Animals The use of the microscope led to the discovery of new organisms and the identification of differences in cells Today the system of classification of classification includes six kingdoms includes six kingdoms
15
The Six Kingdoms Plants Animals Protists Fungi Archaebacteria Eubacteria
16
How are organisms placed into their kingdoms? CCCCell type: complex or simple T T T Their ability to make food T T T The number of cells in their body D D D Do they have a “True” nucleus (Prokaryotes or Eukaryotes)
17
Animal Kingdom BBBBelongs to the Domain Eukarya TTTThe largest kingdom with over 1 million known species AAAAll animals consist of many cells, they are? TTTThey are eukaryotes – TTTThey are also heterotrophs: * Organisms that can’t make their own food FFFFound in the most diverse environments in the world multicellular have a nucleus
18
Plant Kingdom BBBBelongs to the Domain? * Eukarya HHHHas over 250,000 species SSSSecond largest kingdom PPPPlant species range from the tiny green mosses to g g g g g iiii aaaa nnnn tttt t t t t rrrr eeee eeee ssss.... PPPPlants are autotrophs, which means? * Organisms that make their own food AAAAll plants are multicellular CCCConsists of complex eukaryotic c c c cells
19
Fungi Fungi MMMMushrooms, mold and mildew are all examples of organisms in the kingdom f f f f f uuuu nnnn gggg iiii MMMMost fungi are consists of many complex cells TTTThey have a nucleus, they are? BBBBiologists once confused fungi with plants, but fungi cannot make their own food. They are called? WWWWhich domain do they belong in? multicellular Mult icell Eukaryotes Heterotrophs Eukarya
20
Protists SSSSlime molds and algae are protists SSSSometimes they are called the “Odds and ends” kingdom and belong in the domain WWWWhy are Protists the “Odds and ends” kingdom? * Because it includes all microscopic organisms that are not bacteria, not animals, not plants and not fungi. MMMMost p p p p p rrrr oooo tttt iiii ssss tttt ssss are one- celled or but, some are multicellular UUUUnlike bacteria, protists are more complex, they are? unicellular Eukaryotes Eukarya
21
Protozoans TTTThese microscopic unicellular animals belong to which Kingdom? Protists kingdom Amoeba Paramecium Giardia Sprirostoma
22
We are probably one of the most unique organisms. We are a type of algae in the Protists kingdom. What are we? DIATOMS
23
Archaebacteria DDDDiscovered in 1983 deep in the Pacific Ocean where hot gases and molten rock boiled into the ocean. WWWWhat does “Archae” mean? * Ancient or very old FFFFound in extreme environments such as: * Hot boiling water * Thermal vents where there is no Oxygen * Extreme cold temperatures * Very acidic environments
24
Archaebacteria cont…… WWWWe are unicellular organisms called bacteria WWWWe belong in which domain? * Archae SSSScientists believe these were the first organisms on the ancient earth 4 BYO (4 billions years ago)
25
Eubacteria MMMModern bacteria BBBBacteria that are chemically different from Archaebacteria MMMMost are helpful, even harmless MMMMany are pathogenic, which means? * Disease causing CCCCan be heterotrophs or autotrophs WWWWhich domain do they belong in? Bacteria domain
26
Review Questions – Six kingdoms 1.W hat are the Six Kingdoms? Answer: Plants Animals Protists Fungi Archaebacteria Eubacteria 2. How are organisms placed into their kingdoms? Answer: a) Cell type b) Number of cells c) How they make their food d) If they have a “true nucleus” or not 3. Which Kingdom is the largest? Answer: The Animal Kingdom = over 1 million species 4. Organisms in the Plant Kingdom can make their own food? TRUE or FALSE Answer: TRUE They photosynthesize Ex: Trees, flowers…. 5. Mushrooms belong in the Fungi Kingdom? TRUE or FALSE Answer: TRUE
27
Review Questions – Six kingdoms 6. Which kingdom is called the “Odds and ends” kingdom? Answer: The Protists Kingdom 7. What are Archaebacteria? Answer: The oldest – ancient bacteria 8. How long ago did the first Archaebacteria exist? Answer: 4 Billion years ago 9.M ost bacteria in the Eubacteria Kingdom can be harmless, even helpful. TRUE or FALSE Answer: TRUE 10.W hat are the 3 Domains of Life? Answer: 1. Bacteria Domain = Modern bacteria or Eubacteria Kingdom 2. Archae Domain = Archaebacteria Kingdom or Ancient bacteria 3. Eukarya Domain = Animal, Plant, Fungi and Protists Kingdoms
