Aristotle
-classified organisms into plants and animals
-first
Carolus Linnaeus
-grouped organism into different hierarchy levels
hierarchical levels
-kingdom
-phylum
-class
-order
-family
-genus
-species
the 3 classification system (modern)
-Archaebacteria
-eubacteria
-eukaryotic
5 classification system (classic)
-monera
-animelia
-plante
-fungi
-protista
6 classification system (in between)
-archaebacteria
-eubacteria
-animelia
-plante
-fungi
-protista
binomial nomenclature
-system of naming organisms based on their Genus followed by the species name
-both italics
-genus is capitalized
-species is lower case
dichotomous key
several pairs of deceptive statements that have only two alternative responses (way to identify unknown organism)
Kingdom Monera
-archaebacteria & eubacteria
-prokaryotic
- absorption, photosynthesis or chemosynthesis
-mostly asexual
-over 5000 different species
-greatest # of living things
Kingdom Protista
-eukaryotic
-organisms lack specialized tissue system(no organ system)
-unicellular & multicellular
-ingestion, absorption or photosynthesis
-asexual and sexual
-50,000 species
-algae and protozoan are common members of this kingdom
Kingdom Fungi
-eukaryotic
-multicellular & unicellular
-heterotrophs
-sexual & asexual
-over 100,000 species
-mushrooms, molds & yeasts are common examples
Kingdom Plantae
-consist of plants
-autotrophic
-multicellular
-sexual & asexual
-350000 species
Kingdom Animalia
-eukaryotic
-heterotrophs
-ingest food
-sexually (99%)
-more than 1 million
(more than 1 mil nestle species)
What are archaebacteria?
Prokaryotes that live in harsh conditions with little sunlight & oxygen (hot springs, deep sea).
what are eubacteria?
common bacteria
Autotroph
Organisms that make their own food
Heterotroph
organism that obtains energy from the foods it consumes; also called a consumer
Chemotrophs
Organisms that get energy from chemicals taken from the environment
Phototrophs
obtain energy from light
Decomposer
organism that breaks down and obtains energy from dead organic matter
