2/19 :Why is a classification
system important?
Writing Prompt
Evolution is often
referred to as the
“survival of the
fittest.” Defend this
statement in terms of
natural selection.

5
Species of Organisms
•There are 13 billion known
species of organisms
•This is only 5% of all
organisms that ever lived!!!!!
•New organisms are still being
found and identified
copyright cmassengale
6
What is Classification?
Classification is the
arrangement of organisms into
orderly groups based on their
similarities
Classification is also known as
taxonomy
Taxonomists are scientists that
identify & name organisms
copyright cmassengale
7
Benefits of Classifying
•organisms
Accurately & uniformly names
•starfish
Prevents misnomers such as
& jellyfish that aren't
really fish
Uses same language (Latin or
some Greek) for all names
•
Sea”horse”??

Confusion in Using Different
Languages for Names

Latin Names are Understood by
all Taxonomists

10
Early Taxonomists
•2000 years ago,
Aristotle was the
first taxonomist
Aristotle divided
organisms into
plants & animals
He subdivided
them by their
habitat ---land,
sea, or air dwellers
•

11
Early Taxonomists
•John Ray, a
botanist, was
the first to
use Latin for
naming
His names
were very long
descriptions
telling
everything
about the plant
•

12
Carolus Linnaeus
1707 – 1778
• 18th century
taxonomist
• Classified
•
organisms by
their structure
Developed
naming system
still used
today
copyright cmassengale
13
Carolus Linnaeus
•Called the “Father of
Taxonomy”
•Developed the modern
system of naming known
as binomial nomenclature
Two-word name (Genus &
species)
•
copyright cmassengale
14
Standardized Naming
•Binomial
nomenclature used
•Genus species
•Latin or Greek
•Italicized in print
•Capitalize genus,
but NOT species
•Underline when

writing
American Robin

Binomial Nomenclature
Which TWO are more closely related?

16
Rules for Naming Organisms
• The International Code for
•
•
Binomial Nomenclature contains
the rules for naming organisms
All names must be approved by
International Naming Congresses
(International Zoological
Congress)
This prevents duplicated names
copyright cmassengale
17
Classification Groups
• Taxon ( taxa-plural) is a
•
•
category into which related
organisms are placed
There is a hierarchy of groups
(taxa) from broadest to most
specific
Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class,
Order, Family, Genus, species

Domains
• Broadest, most inclusive taxon
• Three domains
• Archaea and Eubacteria are
•
unicellular prokaryotes (no
nucleus or membrane-bound
organelles)
Eukarya are more complex and
have a nucleus and membranebound organelles
copyright cmassengale
22
ARCHAEA
• Probably the 1 cells to evolve
• Live in HARSH environments
• Found in:
st
–Sewage Treatment Plants
–Thermal or Volcanic Vents
–Hot Springs or Geysers that are
acid
–Very salty water (Dead Sea;
Great Salt Lake)

24
EUBACTERIA
• Some may cause DISEASE
• Found in ALL HABITATS except
harsh ones
• Important decomposers for
environment
• Commercially important in making
cottage cheese, yogurt,
buttermilk, etc.
copyright cmassengale
25
Live in the intestines of animals
copyright cmassengale
26
Domain Eukarya is Divided
into Kingdoms
•Protista (protozoans,
algae…)
•Fungi (mushrooms, yeasts …)
•Plantae (multicellular plants)
•Animalia (multicellular
animals)
copyright cmassengale
27
•Most are
unicellular
•Some are
multicellular
•Some are
Protista
autotrophic, while
others are
heterotrophic
Aquatic
•
copyright cmassengale
28
Fungi
• Multicellular,
except yeast
• Absorptive
•
heterotrophs
(digest food
outside their
body & then
absorb it)
Cell walls
made of chitin
copyright cmassengale
29
Plantae
•Multicellular
•Autotrophic
•Absorb sunlight
to make glucose –
Photosynthesis
Cell walls made of
cellulose
•
copyright cmassengale
30
• Multicellular
• Ingestive
•
Animalia
heterotrophs
(consume food
& digest it
inside their
bodies)
Feed on plants
or animals

32
Taxons
•Most genera contain a
number of similar species
•The genus Homo is an
exception (only contains
modern humans)
Classification is based on
evolutionary relationships
•
copyright cmassengale
33
copyright cmassengale
34
Basis for Modern Taxonomy
•Homologous structures (same
structure, different
function)
Similar embryo development
Molecular Similarity in DNA,
RNA, or amino acid sequence
of Proteins
•
•

Homologous Structures (BONES in the FORELIMBS) shows
Similarities in mammals.

based on shared, derived characteristics

Dichotomous Keying
•Used to identify organisms
•Characteristics given in
pairs
•Read both characteristics
and either go to another
set of characteristics OR
identify the organism
