1 Review the Characteristics of Living Things
Section 1-3 Characteristic Examples Living things are made up of units called cells. Many microorganisms consist of only a single cell. Animals and trees are multicellular. Living things reproduce. Maple trees reproduce sexually. A hydra can reproduce asexually by budding. Living things are based on a universal genetic code. Flies produce flies. Dogs produce dogs. Seeds from maple trees produce maple trees. Living things grow and develop. Flies begin life as eggs, then become maggots, and then become adult flies. Living things obtain and use materials and energy. Plants obtain their energy from sunlight. Animals obtain their energy from the food they eat. Living things respond to their environment. Leaves and stems of plants grow toward light. Living things maintain a stable internal environment. Despite changes in the temperature of the environment, a robin maintains a constant body temperature. Taken as a group, living things change over time. Plants that live in the desert survive because they have become adapted to the conditions of the desert. Go to Section:

2 Classification A. What is Classification?
1. Grouping things in a logical manner- similar things grouped together B. Why Classify? B/c scientists need an effective system to study the approximate 2.5 million known organisms So that all scientists can use the same terminology for the same species.

3 C. How are living things classified?
Biologists use Taxonomy- science of classifying and giving a scientific name to organisms. Binomial nomenclature- two word naming system. Each species name has two parts: Genus name and Species name, usually based on Latin or Greek; ex- dogs belong to species Canis familiaris .

4 What is a catfish? What is a dandelion? What is a jellyfish? What is a bullfrog? What is a dragonfly?

11 Who started all this? Carolus Linnaeus- Swedish botanist, 18th Century, developed two name system. Before Linnaeus there was no order to taxonomy. Linnaeus’s system had 7 levels of organization, each level called a taxon (taxa-pl.) Linnaeus’s placed all living things in to one of two Kingdoms- Animalia or Plantae Today we have 6 kingdoms

12 Archaebacteria

13 Eubacteria

14 Protist

15 Fungi

16 Plants

17 Animals

18 Linnaeus’s System of Classification
King Kingdom Scientific Name= Genus and Species Ex: Homo sapien Rules: Genus is always capitalized and species is always lower case. Both are always italicized or underlined Phillip Phylum Came Class Over Order For Family Great Genus Spaghetti Species

19 Classification of Ursus arctos

20 E. Kingdom Archaebacteria
Only recently recognized as a separate bacteria kingdom Live in very extreme environments Have a cell wall and some use flagella for movement Unicellular – single celled Prokaryote – simple cell with no nucleus Reproduce asexually Can be helpful & harmful

21 F. Kingdom Eubacteria Largest of the two bacteria kingdoms & can live almost anywhere Have cell walls and some use flagella for movement Prokaryote – simple, unicellular cell with no nucleus Reproduce Asexually Can be helpful & harmful

22

23 G. Kingdom Protista Eukaryote – complex cell with a nucleus
Most reproduce asexually, some sexually Very diverse kingdom Can be autotrophs (producers) or heterotrophs (consumers) Can be unicellular or multicellular Many have cell walls Examples: Algae, Amoeba, Diatoms

24 Algae

25 H. Kingdom Fungi Eukaryote – complex cell with a nucleus
Multicellular (except yeast) Have cell walls made of chitin Can reproduce asexually with spores or sexually Heterotrophs (consumers) – they eat! Important decomposers Examples: Mushrooms, mold, lichens

26 I. Kingdom Plantae Eukaryote – complex cell with a nucleus
Multicellular Have cell walls made of cellulose Autotrophs (producers) – they carry out photosynthesis Reproduce sexually with pollen or asexually

27 J. Kingdom Animalia Hey! That’s You!
Eukaryote – complex cell with a nucleus Do not have cell walls Multicellular Heterotrophs (consumers) Reproduce sexually Examples: insects, fish, humans
