Classification of Living Things Chapter 18 http://analyzer.depaul.edu/astrobiology/kingdoms.jpg
3
REMEMBER ______________ total of all the living things in an ecosystem ___________ population of organisms that share similar characteristics and can breed with each other BIODIVERSITY SPECIES
4
Biologists have identified and named over______________ species so far. Estimates = between 2-100 million species yet be discovered 2.5 million http://www.millan.net
5
WHY CLASSIFY? Identifies and names organisms Groups organisms in a logical manner
6
_______________ = branch of biology that names and groups organisms TAXONOMY
7
Naming and organizing animals into groups with biological significance helps make sense of relationships. BIRD... ? Image from: http://www.flagsplus.com/flags/21778_bird_collage.jpg An animal with feathers
8
A good classification system: places organisms in a group with other organisms that are similar
9
A good classification system: Uses names that are _________ Can _____ as new data is discovered Shows _____________ of organisms UNIQUE CHANGE RELATIONSHIPS
10
The first person to group or classify organisms was the Greek teacher & philosopher _______________ more than 2000 years ago. (300 B.C.) ARISTOTLE Image from: http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/history/aristotle.html
11
Aristotle’s system Based on size of stem PLANTS: Based on where they lived ANIMALS: By: Riedell
12
Common names can vary Example: puma, catamount, mountain lion, cougar... are all names for same animal Image from: http://www4.d25.k12.id.us/ihil/images/Cougar.jpg By using a universally accepted scientific name, scientists can be sure they are discussing the same organism
13
Common names vary Chipmunk Streifenhornchen (German) Tamia (Italian) Ardilla listada (Spanish) Image from: http://www.entm.purdue.edu/wildlife/chipmunk_pictures.htm
14
Common names can be misleading Sea cucumber sounds like a plant but… it’s an animal! Ex: A jellyFISH isn’t a fish, but a seaHORSE is! Image from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jellyfish Image from: http://www.alaska.net/~scubaguy/images/seacucumber.jpg
15
Common names can be misleading In the United States, BUZZARD refers to a vulture. In the United Kingdom, BUZZARD refers to a hawk http://www.camacdonald.com/birding/HoodedVulture(HM).jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Buteo_buteo_5_%28Marek_Szczepanek%29.jpg
16
By mid 19 th century, scientists recognized that using common names was confusing. Scientists agreed to use ____________ to give a single name to each species. Latin and Greek
17
EXAMPLE: RED OAK Quercus foliis obtuse-sinuatis setaceo-mucronatis Names too hard and long to remember! “oak with deeply divided leaves with deep blunt lobes bearing hair-like bristles” Different scientists described different characteristics. PROBLEMS:
18
Carolus Linnaeus comes to the rescue! Swedish botanist who devised a new classification system This system is still used today! (1707-1778) Image from: http://www.medusozoa.com/images/linnaeus.jpg
19
Linnaeus’s System Organisms are grouped in a hierarchy of 7 different taxonomic levels OR ____________ Each organism has a two part scientific name = _________________________ TAXONS BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE

24
BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE (2-name naming system) 1 st name = _______________ –Always capitalized 2 nd name = _________________ –Always lower case Both names are ______________ or written in ____________. GENUS NAME SPECIES NAME UNDERLINED ITALICS
25
GENUS = group of closely related species GENUS = Ursus (Includes many kinds of bears) SPECIES = unique to each kind of bear http://www.macecanada.com/images/bears/kodiak_bear.gif http://students.cs.byu.edu/~tole/Virtual%20Zoo/polar-bear.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Black_bear_large.jpg Ursus arctos Ursus maritimus Ursus americanis

MODERN EVOLUTIONARY CLASSIFICATION 18-2
28
In a way, organisms determine who belongs to their species by choosing with whom they will __________! Taxonomic groups are “invented” by scientists to group organisms with similar _______________. MATE characteristics
29
BUT... which characteristics are MOST IMPORTANT?
30
Should a dolphin be grouped with fish because it has fins and lives in water? OR with mammals because it breathes air and makes milk for its young?
31
Look at these 3 organisms: LIMPET CRAB BARNACLE http://greatescapetravel.com/album/MAUI2001/pages/molokini_kona_crab.html http://nearctica.com/ecology/habitats/barnacle.jpg http://siena.earth.rochester.edu/ees207/Gastropoda/
32
Judging by appearances you would probably put limpets and barnacles together in a group and crabs in a different group. BUT LOOKS can be deceiving! BIOLOGY by Miller and Levine; Prentice Hall Publishers© 2006
33
LIMPET CRAB BARNACLE Look more closely! Limpet and barnacle larvae are very different. Barnacles have jointed limbs. Limpets DON’T ! Barnacles have a segmented body Limpets DON’T ! Barnacles have an exoskeleton that molts. Limpets DON’T !
34
LIMPET CRABBARNACLE Look more closely! Crab and barnacle larvae are very similar Barnacles have jointed limbs. So do CRABS ! Barnacles have a segmented body So do CRABS ! Barnacles have an exoskeleton that molts. So do CRABS !
35
LIMPET SNAIL http://siena.earth.rochester.edu/ees207/Gastropoda/ Limpets have an internal anatomy more like snails, which are MOLLUSKS. Because of these characteristics, scientists have concluded that barnacles are more closely related to crabs than to MOLLUSKS
36
BOTH crabs and barnacles have been classified as CRUSTACEANS Image from: Biology by Miller and Levine; Prentice Hall Publishing ©2006
37
MODERN TAXONOMY Grouping organisms based on their evolutionary history = _____________________ Evolutionary classification
38
MODERN TAXONOMY The study of an organism’s evolutionary history = phylogeny
39
____________is a system of classifying organisms that considers only characteristics that are “new evolutionary innovations”. Characteristics that appear in recent parts of a lineage but not in its older members = __________________ CLADISTICS Derived characters
40
Derived characters can be used to construct a diagram that shows evolutionary relationships among groups of organisms = ________ cladogram Image from:http://sps.k12.ar.us/massengale/images/clip0075.jpg
41
Derived characters appear at branches of the cladogram showing where they first arose. Cladograms help scientists understand how one lineage branched from another Image from: Biology by Miller and Levine; Prentice Hall Publishing ©2006
42
All of the classification methods discussed so far are based on physical similarities and differences. Even organisms with very different anatomies can share common traits. EX: All living things use ______________to pass on information and control growth. DNA and RNA http://sbchem.sunysb.edu/msl/dna.gif
43
GENES of many organisms show remarkable similarity at the molecular level. Similarities in DNA can be used to help determine classification and evolutionary relationships between organisms. http://sbchem.sunysb.edu/msl/dna.gif
44
Humans have a gene that codes for a protein that helps our muscles move called __________ Researchers have found a gene in yeast that codes for a myosin protein, that enables internal cell parts to move. MYOSIN http://universe-review.ca/I11-32-yeast.jpg
45
Similarities in DNA can be used to help show evolutionary relationships and how species have changed. Images from: Biology by Miller and Levine; Prentice Hall Publishing©2006 African vulture American vulture Stork Traditionally these first two were classified together in falcon family. Storks were put in a separate family.
46
American vultures have a peculiar behavior. When they get overheated, they urinate on their legs to cool off Images from: Biology by Miller and Levine; Prentice Hall Publishing©2006 African vulture American vulture Stork The only other bird that does this is the STORK.
47
DNA comparisons showed more similarities between American vulture and stork DNA than DNA from the two kinds of vultures suggesting a more ______________________ between storks and American vultures Images from: Biology by Miller and Levine; Prentice Hall Publishing©2006 African vulture American vulture Stork recent common ancestor
48
Comparisons of DNA can also be used to mark the passage of evolutionary time A model that uses DNA comparisons to estimate the length of time that two species have been evolving independently = ________________ MOLECULAR CLOCK
49
____________ occur all the time and cause slight changes to the DNA code. Degree of _________ is an indication of how long ago two species shared a common ancestor Mutations dissimilarity Image from: Biology by Miller and Levine; Prentice Hall Publishing©2006
50
Different genes accumulate mutations at different rates so there are many molecular clocks “ticking”. http://www.kahlert.com/web/images/tech_clock.gif Allows scientists to time different kinds of evolutionary events, like using different hands on a clock.
