Classification study guide
Name _____________ date ________
Earth is 4.5 (ish) billions years old
life started 3.5 billion years ago (bya)
Miller and Urey’s experiment – know how they set it up
found amino acids, the building blocks of proteins
other found adenine, a building block of DNA, RNA, and ATP
earliest life – similar to Archaea probably
Prokaryotes: Archaea and Bacteria – no nucleus
Archaea – extremophiles – high salt, high temps, high pressure (deep ocean)
some live in “normal” environments
Next organisms were the true bacteria –
shapes: cocci (round), bacilli (rod-shaped), or spiral bacteria
cynaobacteria – photosynthesis – made the first free oxygen by splitting water during
photosynthesis
See chart that we made together
domains: Arachaea, Bacteria, Eukarya
Kingdoms: Archaebaceria
Eubacteria
Prokaryotes
Domain

Kingdom
Archaebacteria Eubacteria
Examples?
extremophiles Strep

Know the characteristics of living things.
Homeostasis – maintain stable internal environment – such as blood pressure, body temperature in
mammals and birds
Are viruses alive?
Definition of a species – group of similar organisms breed in nature and produce fertile offspring
Domain – Kingdom – Phylum – Class - Order – Family – Genus - species
Linnaeus – classified animals by binomial nomenclature
based on how things work
Evolutionary classification – based on characteristics acquired through evolution
shown by a cladogram - be able to read a cladogram
Now we classify by DNA and proteins
mutations occur at a steady rate (mostly) so they can be used as a molecular clock to determine how
long ago two species had a common ancestor
dichotomous key – used to identify organisms based on physical traits
each step of the key has two possibilities – must be one or the other, cannot be both
be able to use a dichotomous key
What was early Earth’s atmosphere like?
was there free oxygen?
