Transcript and Presenter's Notes

Title: Categorize organisms below:


1
Categorize organisms below
  • Dog Cat Cat fish
  • Lion Wolf Apple tree
  • Dandelions Lizard
  • Shark Mouse Deer

2
Taxonomy
3
Taxonomy
  • Classification and naming of living things

4
1700s Carolus Linnaeus
  • Grouped organisms in hierarchical categories
    based on structural similarities.
  • Devised a 2-part system to give organisms a
    scientific name.

5
Binomial Nomenclature
  • 2 part naming system.
  • 1st part Genus (generic)
  • 2nd part species (specific)
  • Written in italics and genus is capitalized.
  • Example humans- Homo sapien

6
Modern Linnaean System
  • Domain
  • Kingdom
  • Phylum
  • Class
  • Order
  • Family
  • Genus
  • Species

7
Humans
  • Eukarya
  • Animalia
  • Chordata
  • Mammalia
  • Primata
  • Homindae
  • Homo
  • Sapien
  • Homo sapien

8
Dandelions
  • Eukarya
  • Plantae
  • Magnoliophyta
  • Magnoliopsida
  • Asterales
  • Asteraceae
  • Taraxacum
  • Officinale
  • Taraxacum officinale

9
3 Domains
  1. Archaea
  2. Bacteria
  3. Eukarya

10
6 Kingdoms
  1. Archeabacteria
  2. Eubacteria
  3. Protista
  4. Fungi
  5. Plantae
  6. Animalia

11
Archeabacteria
  • Prokaryotic cells
  • Heterotrophic and autotrophic by chemosynthesis

12
Eubacteria
  • Prokaryotic
  • Unicellular
  • Heterotrophic and autotrophic by photosynthesis
    and chemosynthesis

13
Protista
  • Eukaryotic
  • Mostly unicellular, few multicellular
  • Not fungus, plant, or animal
  • Examples ameoba, paramecium

14

15
Fungi
  • Eukaryotic
  • Unicellular or Multicellular
  • Heterotrophs that absorb rather than ingest
  • Examples mushrooms, mildews, mold

16
Plantae
  • Eukaryotic
  • Multicellular
  • Photosynthetic
  • Develop from embryos
  • Example mosses, ferns, flowering plants

17
Animalia
  • Eukaryotic
  • Multicellular
  • Heterotrophs
  • Develop from embryos
  • Examples birds, mammals, reptiles

18
Dichotomous Key
  • Used to classify and identify organisms based on
    observable characteristics, such as structure and
    behavior.
  • Lists specific characteristics in opposing pairs.

19
Phylogenic Tree
  • represents the hypotheses of the evolutionary
    relationships between groups of organisms.

20
Cladogram
  • a phylogenic tree that compares shared and
    derived characteristics.
  • Shared characteristic feature that all
    members of a group have.
  • Derived characteristic feature that evolved
    only with the specific group.

21
A. What characteristics does a cladogram compare?
  • Homologous structures
  • Embryological features
  • Molecular similarities

22
B. What do cladograms assume?
  • That organisms that share derived
    characteristics, inherited them from a common
    ancestor.

23
C. What do cladograms show?
  • Which organisms shared a more recent common
    ancestor, NOT who evolved from whom

24
D. Do cladograms show definitive, proven
evolutionary relationships?
  • No, it shows a hypothesis and can be modified as
    discoveries are made.

25
How to read a cladogram
  • Outgroup first group does not share any
    features with the rest of the groups.
  • Nodes represent a common ancestor.
  • Branches trace new derived characteristics.
