- Classification of Living Things
- Slide 2
- Entrance question List at least five thing humans
classify.
- Slide 3
- What if no one knew who or what you were? What if you did not
have a name?
- Slide 4
- What are some ways you are classified? Gender Age Social
security number Income State/ are of residence Profession
- Slide 5
- Connection to the past In early ancient Greece a philosopher
started the thinking of classifying organisms based on
characteristics. It was once thought that there were only two
kingdoms: Plants and animals.

- Linnaeus His two prime contributions were: A. Establish
conventions for the naming of living organisms using binomial
nomenclature (the genus name followed by the species name) B.
Developing an hierarchical system for classification of organisms.
Linnaeus' conventions would become universally accepted in the
scientific world.
- Slide 8
- Carolus Linnaeus A Swedish scientist that founded the science
of taxonomy.
- Slide 9
- Taxonomy Is the science of naming and classifying
organisms.
- Slide 10
- Why do scientists classify living things?
- Slide 11
- To make it easier to organize, find, and share information and
eliminate confusion. Without this naming system if I told you to
pet Felis domesticus, if you picked the wrong one you could be
injured.
- Slide 12
- Classification The division of organisms into groups, or
classes, based on their characteristics.
- Slide 13
- Classifying The more levels shared, the more organisms have in
common. As you move down, there are fewer kinds of organisms in
each group, but organism look similar and have more in common with
one another.
- Slide 14
- Scientists around the world use the system of binomial
nomenclature to identify all living organism. This system assigns
the Latin words as the scientific name.
- Slide 15
- Scientific name The system that assigns the Latin words genus
(capitalized) and species (lowercase)
- Slide 16
- Cont The first part of an organisms scientific name is Genus
and the second part is Species. Together these two names identify
one kinds of organism. House Cat genus: Felis Species:
domesticus

- HumanHomo sapien African ElephantLoxdonta africana Mountain
lionFelis concolor
- Slide 18
- Binomial nomenclature the system of assigning two- part Latin
or Latinized scientific names to plants, animals, and
microorganisms, with the first word denoting the genus and the
second the species.

- Slide 21
- For a long time, all life on Earth was divided into five
kingdoms. Now many scientists say there are six kingdoms. They have
divided the first kingdom into two separate groups.
- Slide 22
- Each kingdom is divided into many phyla. Phyla are divided into
classes. Classes are divided into orders. Orders are divided in
families. Families are divided into genera Genera are divided into
species. These divisions are based on characteristics. Lets look at
these groups.
- Slide 23
- Levels of Classification( know this in order) Kingdom Phylum
Class Order Family Genus Species
- Slide 24
- Make a sentence to help you remember the groups in order.

- Slide 25
- Kingdom Largest group or level of classification Organized
according to certain traits
- Slide 26
- The Six Kingdoms
- Slide 27
- Archaebacteria( ancient ) Has one cell/prokaryotic Has no
nucleus Makes its own food/autotroph They do not have cell walls
The term archae means ancient Some move from place to place Lives
in extreme environments (hot, cold, salty and acidic)
- Slide 28
- Autotroph able to manufacture nutrients: describes organisms,
especially green plants, that are capable of making nutrients from
inorganic materials.
- Slide 29
- Types of archeabacteria Methanogens- Produce methane and die if
exposed to oxygen. Halophiles- live in very salty lakes and ponds.
Thermophiles- live in extreme heat or cold.
- Slide 30
- A boiling hot springs in Yellowstone National Park. The
orange-red coloration is caused by dense colonies of photosynthetic
cyanobacteria Halophiles/thermophiles
- Slide 31
- Eubacteria (true) Has one cell/prokaryotic Has no nucleus Makes
or obtains own food(can be considered heterotrophic or autotrophic)
Live in neutral conditions Some move from place to place Contains
all prokaryotic cells except archaebacteria Known as decomposers
They may be helpful or harmful
- Slide 32
- Heterotroph getting nutrients through food digestion: obtaining
nourishment by digesting plant or animal matter, as animals do, as
opposed to photosynthesizing food, as plants do
- Slide 33
- E. coli
- Slide 34
- Exit question How do scientists classify organisms?
- Slide 35
- Entrance question What do scientist use to name organisms?
- Slide 36
- Protista Kingdom Mostly one-celled eukaryotic organisms Makes
or obtains own food Classified by the way they obtain energy Some
move from place to place
- Slide 37
- Slide 38
- Protozoa
- Slide 39
- Paramecium/uses cilia for movement
- Slide 40
- Cilia microscopic hairlike process extending from the surface
of a cell or unicellular organism.
- Slide 41
- Contractile vacuole membrane-bound organelle found in certain
protists that periodically expands, filling with water, and then
contracts, expelling its contents to the cell exterior.
- Slide 42
- Euglena/uses flagella for movement
- Slide 43
- Flagella A long, threadlike appendage, especially a whip-like
extension of certain cells or unicellular organisms that functions
as an organ of locomotion.
- Slide 44
- Amoeba/uses pseudopods for movement
- Slide 45
- Pseudopods A temporary foot-like extension of a one-celled
organism used for moving about and for surrounding and taking in
food.
- Slide 46
- Protists The three groups of protists are: Fungus like
Plant-like Animal-like
- Slide 47
- Algae
- Slide 48
- Fungi They are eukaryotic heterotrophs that can act as
decomposers. The kingdom includes mushrooms, mold, and yeasts. All
fungi except yeast are multicellular. Fungi obtain energy by
absorbing materials. Fungi have no chloroplasts, but do have cell
walls.
- Slide 49
- Fungus Kingdom Has one or many cells Has a nucleus/eukaryotic
Absorbs food/heterotroph Cannot move from place to place sessile Do
not have chloroplasts or cell walls Reproduce by spores
- Slide 50
- Spore asexual reproductive structure: a small, usually one-
celled reproductive structure produced by seedless plants, algae,
fungi, and some protozoans that is capable of developing into a new
organism.
- Slide 51
- Spores
- Slide 52
- Examples of fungi are mushrooms, molds and yeast.
- Slide 53
- It is used in Hindu rituals this mushroom could cause
hallucinations. Liberty cap grown in the UK
- Slide 54
- Slime mold
- Slide 55
- Mold Molds
- Slide 56
- Yeast small single-celled fungus: a small single-celled fungus
that ferments sugars and other carbohydrates and reproduces by
budding. Genus Saccharomyces.
- Slide 57
- Plant Kingdom Has many cells/multicellular Has a
nucleus/eukaryotic Makes its own food using chloroplasts
/autotrophic Has a cell wall made of cellulose Cannot move from
place to place/sessile
- Slide 58
- Cellulose A stringy, fibrous substance that forms the main
material in the cell walls of plants.cell walls
- Slide 59
- Slide 60
- Slide 61
- Plant kingdom Plants are multicellular eukaryotic organisms
that primarily produce their own food through photosynthesis. Lets
look at how they obtain their food and energy.
- Slide 62
- Autotroph able to manufacture nutrients: describes organisms,
especially green plants, that are capable of making nutrients from
inorganic materials.
- Slide 63
- Photosynthesis carbohydrate production using light and
chlorophyll: a process by which green plants and other organisms
turn carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates and oxygen, using
light energy trapped by chlorophyll.
- Slide 64
- Producers organism that makes its food: an organism that
manufactures its own food from simple inorganic substances, e.g. a
green plant They are plants.
- Slide 65
- Animal Kingdom Has many cells/multicellular Has a
nucleus/eukaryotic Does not make own food/heterotrophic Moves from
place to place/highly mobile Has a advance nervous system to
respond to the environment Reproduce sexually or asexually
Interdependent on other organisms/consumers
- Slide 66
- Slide 67
- Consumers organism that feeds on others: include herbivorous
and carnivorous animals, which feed on plants and other animals
respectively, and also organisms such as worms, fungi, and
bacteria, which feed on nonliving organic material.
- Slide 68
- Heterotroph getting nutrients through food digestion: obtaining
nourishment by digesting plant or animal matter, as animals do, as
opposed to photosynthesizing food, as plants do
- Slide 69
- Summary Classifying organisms helps in three ways. 1. Allows
scientists to keep track of organisms 2. Helps people communicate
by using one naming system 3. helps to organize information for
further study.
- Slide 70
- Exit question Name the 6 kingdoms.
