• Are you an organized person?– Consider – do you organize your room? CDs?
Your clothes? Your school work?
• What would happen if nothing was organized?– Would you be able to find anything?
• Why is it necessary to classify?

*Scientists have identified more than
2 MILLION SPECIES OF ORGANISMS- But estimate 40 MILLION SPECIES inhabit the Earth.
*There may be millions of undiscovered species, especially microbes, plants & insects , In the Tropical Rain Forest & Oceans
*Every year, thousands of new species are discovered.

I. Biodiversity• Biodiversity is the variety of organisms
on the earth.
• Considered at all levels from populations to ecosystems.
• Naturalists have invented several systems for categorizing
![Page 5: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
A. Taxonomy
• Taxonomy is the science of describing, naming, and classifying organisms.
• The branch of biology that names & groups organisms -according to their characteristics & evolutionary history.
• A Universal System was designed to Eliminate the use of Common Names and Confusion in the Scientific World.
![Page 6: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
History of Taxonomy
a. Aristotle –Early Classification system
• Greek philosopher more than 2,000 years ago
• Classified things- Plant or Animal– Grouped Animals into Land Dwellers, Water
Dwellers, and Air Dwellers. – Also grouped Plants into 3 categories, based
on differences in their Stems.
![Page 7: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Naturalists replaced Aristotle’s classification system
• As modern science developed in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, Aristotle's system was found to be
INADEQUATE.
• Aristotle's categories did not work for all organisms.• his use of common names was problematic.
![Page 8: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Use of Common Names• COMMON NAMES, such as “robin” or “fir
tree”, for organisms created some problems
• common names varied from one locale to next & did not describe species accurately.
• Use of long Latin names• Used by scientists before 1700’s,- did not
show relationships between species & were inconvenient, hard to understand.
![Page 9: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Describe a problem with each of these common names
-Starfish -Seahorse -Jelly fish
-Peanut -Catfish -Tiger shark
How are their names misleading?
Discuss problems when 1 organism has 2 common names
Example- firefly & lightening bug
![Page 10: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
b. Carl Linnaeus (1707-1778)
“Father of Modern Taxonomy”
Swedish Naturalist• Used morphology(structure & form) • Grouped organisms into hierarchical categories
![Page 11: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Linnaeus• Formed “Taxa” (groups of organisms)
• (Used Latin for the Names because it was the language of educated people)
• System was based on Morphology which are the STRUCTURAL SIMILARITIES BETWEEN ORGANISMS
• Series of hierarchical categories used to show relationships
![Page 12: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Linneaus divided organisms into 2 KINGDOMS:• PLANTAE & ANIMALIA.
• Then divided each Kingdom into smaller groups. (Linnaeus's classification hierarchy had 5 levels)KINGDOM, CLASS, ORDER, GENUS, SPECIES
• EACH LEVEL GROUPS TOGETHER ORGANISMS THAT SHARE MORE CHARACTERISTICS WITH EACH OTHER. (general to more specific)
Modern scientists add 2 more classifications levels to original 5: PHYLUM & FAMILY.
![Page 13: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
7 Modern Levels of Classification (From the most general to the most specific)
• Kingdom• Phylum• Class• Order• Family• Genus
• SpeciesSpecies is the smallest, most specific.Categories get larger, more general.
Kingdom is the largest, least specific
![Page 14: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Pneumonic Devices• Keep Penguins Cool Or Find
Good Shelteror
• Kennywood Park Can Open For Good Summers.
or
• King Phillip Comes Over For Good Spaghetti

![Page 16: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Classification Hierarchy of Organisms
![Page 17: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
3 Domains:
• Most modern system by Carl Woese
• These are Broad groups above the kingdom level.
Archaea
Bacteria
Eukarya
![Page 18: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
2. Binomial Nomenclature“Two name naming”
• Uses the last 2 categories (the most specific) to name things.
• Developed by Carl Linnaeus using the hierarchical system- uses the Genus & Species for the 2 parts of the name
• Always Capitalize the Genus but Not the Species Identifier. Both are either underlined or italicized.
![Page 19: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Using Binomial Nomenclature• Acer rubrum - RED MAPLE TREE • Acer is the Latin name for Maple (genus) • rubrum is the Latin word for Red(species) • Can be Abreviated: A.rubrum.
• HUMANS ARE NAMED: Homo sapiens • Homo -large brain & upright posture.
sapiens for our intelligence & ability
to speak. Abbreviated H. sapiens
![Page 20: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Additional Categories
• Zoologists-use term “SUBSPECIES” for variations that may occur in species from different geographical locations- ie, timber wolf and the northern timber wolf-
Canis Lupus ssp occidentalis
• Botanists – May use the term “division” instead of phylum– sometimes split species into Subsets known as
VARIETIES. Example: peaches & nectarines are varieties of Prunus persica var.
![Page 21: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• Microbiologists- Bacteria are also
broken into subsets called STRAINS. Example: Escherichia Coli – some strains are harmless, even helpful;- live in our intestines, but strain E. coli 157 is responsible for food poisoning deaths.
According to the CDC there are an estimated 73,000 cases of E. Coli infection every year in the United States. The typical symptoms are bloody diarrhea and (if severe) kidney failure. These symptoms most commonly appear when a person has eaten undercooked or contaminated ground beef.
![Page 22: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
*The way we group organisms continues to change, and today these methods reflect the evolutionary history of organisms (What’s in their genes).
This is called Phylogeny.
II. Systematics
![Page 23: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Systematics* organizes the diversity of living
organisms in the context of evolution.
Scientists construct Phylogenic Trees based on several types of evidence:
1. Fossil Record 2. Morphology3. Embryology 4. Chromosomes & Macromolecules
![Page 24: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
1. Phylogenic Trees
• A family tree that shows evolutionary relationships thought to exist among organisms.
• Is a hypothesis about the relationships.
• Is subject to change - as more evidence is learned.
![Page 25: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
![Page 26: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
![Page 27: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
1. Fossil Record• Fossil Record a useful tool for ancient
organisms. • Record is incomplete
– Some organisms overrepresented– Some organisms may be missing
• Need other evidences to verify phylogenic relationships
II. Shared ancestry: Evidences for Evolutionary Relationships
![Page 28: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Fossils Types: actual preservation, petrification, imprints, molds, casts, footprints
• Dated by radioactive isotopes in fossil or geological formation in which fossils are found
• Requires long periods of time and unusual
conditions for fossil preservation
![Page 29: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
2. Morphology• Examine structure & function
• Homologous structures- similar features that originated from similar ancestors. (forelimbs on bat, human, penguin)
• Analogous structures- features that serve similar functions & look alike but originated from different embryonic tissues.
(wings- on butterfly, bat, hummingbird)
II. Shared ancestry: Evidences for Evolutionary Relationships
![Page 30: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Homologous structures
Comparing the structural features found in different organisms reveals a basic similarity.
example is the forelimb of mammals - Although function is quite different, they are similar structurally.
![Page 31: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Analogous structures• We must look at
structures that look & function the same but are not derived from the same embryonic tissue.
• These features do not show recent, related ancestory.
![Page 32: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Vestigial structures• Features which serve no useful function any
longer in the organism.
• Examples: the pelvis bone in the whale, tailbone & appendix in humans, pelvis & leg bones in some snakes, etc
![Page 33: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
3. Embryology
• SIMILARITIES IN EARLY EMBRYOLOGICAL DEVELOPEMNT OF VERTEBRATES CAN BE TAKEN AS ANOTHER INDICATION THAT VERTEBRATES MAY SHARE A COMMON ANCESTRY.
II. Shared ancestry: Evidences for Evolutionary Relationships
![Page 34: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
At the blastula stage, scientists begin to look for differences in the ways organisms develop.
![Page 35: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Blastula - An early embryonic form produced by cleavage of a fertilized ovum - a spherical layer of cells surrounding a fluid-filled cavity.(think of a basketball)
Gastrula - double-walled stage of the embryo succeeding the blastula; the outer layer of cells is the ectoderm and the inner layer differentiates into the mesoderm and endoderm
![Page 36: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Embryology example-At the blastula stage- what happens if a scientist
separates a cell from the ball?
• In Vertebrates (animals with a backbone) &
Echinoderms animals like starfish & sand dollars)- any cell separated can produce a “twin”.
• But blastula cells in a fruit fly cannot- the separated cells are already specialized to form a part & will die.
• Conclusion- we are more closely related to starfish than insects
![Page 37: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
4. Chromosomes & Macromolecules
• Taxonomists compare Macromolecules like DNA, RNA & Proteins.
• Example- the number of differences in amino acids is a clue to how long ago 2 species “Diverged”
• In Divergent Evolution- 2 species become more and more dissimilar.
• Convergent Evolution- Species which have different ancestors, but have become more similar
II. Shared ancestry: Evidences for Evolutionary Relationships
![Page 38: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Proteins indicate degree of relatedness. Differences - Amino Acids in Protein Cytochrome C
• (From Atlas of Protein Sequence and Structure, 1967-68 by Margaret O. Dayhoff
Number of different amino acids found in human cytochrome C as opposed to selected organisms
Organism # of amino acids different compared to humans
Human 0 Self (Family Hominidae, Order Primates)
Monkey 1 Different family (Pongidae), same order (Primates)
Pig, bovine, sheep 10 Different order (Carnivora), same class (Mammalia)Horse 12
Dog 11
Rabbit 9
Chicken, Turkey 13 Different class (Aves), same phylum (Chordata) - homeothermicDuck 11
Rattlesnake 14 Different class (Reptilia), same phylum (Chordata) - poikilothermicTurtle 15
Tuna 21 Different class (Ostheichthys), same phylum (Chordata) - poikilothermic
Moth 31 Different phylum (Arthropoda), same Kingdom (Animalia)
Candida fungus 51 Different Kingdom (Fungi)

B. Cladistics• uses shared, derived characters as
the only criterion for grouping taxa.
• is a newer way to display relationships which highlights other differences (shared or derived chracters)
![Page 41: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• Shared characters-
• Derived Characters- are special features that apparently have only developed in that group
– like feathers in birds
![Page 42: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Cladogram• Shared derived characters are strong
indicators of common ancestry.
• Diagrams which show derived characters are called cladograms.
• Cladograms can show non-traditional conclusions about
which organisms
are “close cousins”.
![Page 43: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
From this cladogram, we can figure out that brown bears have more derived characters in
common with sun bears than with dogs & lesser pandas are more closely related to
racoons than giant pandas.

Dichotomous Key
• A dichotomous key graphically organizes data. You start with a main idea, split that into two major pieces. Those pieces are then split again into two major pieces. You can continue splitting each piece until you reach only one possible answer.
• Each set of questions is called a couplet, & contains instructions for which couplet to go to next.
![Page 46: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Example of Dichotomous Key
![Page 47: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Dichotomous Key Use• Can be used by any one to classify anything.• Are used by taxonomists to classify organisms.
![Page 48: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
III. TWO MODERN SYSTEMS OF CLASSIFICATION
Aristotle classified organisms as either plant or animal, but today we recognize that many forms of life are neither
2 Ways to organize (things continue to change)
A. Three Domain System
B. Six Kingdom System
![Page 49: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Modern TAXONOMY recognizes that many organisms are Neither
Plant or Animal. • Study cellular structure
• Look at ways organisms obtain food:
–Autotroph- Makes own food (photosysthesis or chemosynthesis)
–Heterotroph- Eats something
![Page 50: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
3 Domain System• Compares Ribosomal RNA of different
organisms.• Most modern system by Carl Woese• Broad groups
ArchaeaBacteriaEukarya
![Page 51: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
3 Domains1. Archaea = Prokaryotic cells
2. Bactaeria = Prokaryotic cells
3. Eukarya = Eukaryotic cellsThere are four kingdoms in Eukarya* Protista * Fungi* Plantae * Animalia
![Page 52: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
![Page 53: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
• SIX KINGDOMS GROUP ORGANISMS TOGETHER THAT HAVE SIMILARITIES SUCH AS MAJOR CELLULAR STRUCTURE, METHODS OF OBTAINING NUTRIENTS, AND METABOLISM.
![Page 54: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
The 3 Domains in detail:• Domain Archaea
– aligns with Kingdom Archaebacteria, are single-celled prokaryotes that have distinctive cell membranes and cell walls.
• Domain Bacteria– aligns with Kingdom Eubacteria, are single-
celled prokaryotes that are true bacteria.
• Domain Eukarya– Domain Eukarya includes the kingdoms Protista,
Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. – All members of this domain have eukaryotic cells.
![Page 55: Chapter 17 Classification Information from Holt Biology & other sites as listed.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032016/56649e4e5503460f94b4482f/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
What are Bacteria?
• Until recently, the term bacteria was used for all microscopic prokaryotes. But, it turns out that there are two groups of prokaryotes that differ from each other in just about every way except size and lack of a nucleus.
• These are now divided into 2 kingdoms: – Archaea -(also known as Archaebacteria)
anicient, extreme environments.– Bacteria- the "true" bacteria (also known as

Bacteria-
• Organisms in the Kingdoms Eubacteria & Archae are very different from each other.
• Archaebacteria have been found in temperatures above the boiling point and in cold that would freeze your blood. Eubacteria are the “regular” bacteria.

1. Archeabacteria• The prefix archae - comes from the Greek Word
"ANCIENT". MAY BE Directly descended from and very similar to the First Organisms on Earth.
• They Are UNICELLULAR PROKARYOTES with distinctive Cell Membranes as well as Biochemical and Genetic Properties that Differ from ALL Other Kinds of Life.
• Some are AUTOTROPHIC, producing food by CHEMOSYNTHESIS. Most are HETEROTROPHIC.

Archaea:
• Some types are
• A. Methanogens
• B. Themoacidophiles
• C. Extreme Halophiles

• Called Extremophiles• Many Archaebacteria LIVE in HARSH
ENVIRONMENTS such as Sulfurous Hot Springs, Very Salty Lakes, and in ANAEROBIC Environments, such as the Intestines of Mammals. Includes Chemosynthetic Bacteria.
Domain: Archaea, Kingdom Archaeabacteria

The “true” bacteria• The first thing you probably think of
when you say this word is “disease”- something like strep. throat or maybe an infection in a cut.
• Most of the bacteria that are disease causing are Eubacteria.
• NOTE: Only about 1% of bacteria are disease causing.
Domain: Bacteria, Kingdom Bacteria

• Many bacteria are very helpful organisms.
• Actinomycetes, produce antibiotics such as streptomycin and nocardicin;
• others live symbiotically in the guts of animals (including humans) or elsewhere in their bodies, or on the roots of certain plants, converting nitrogen into a usable form.
• Bacteria put the tang in yogurt and the sour in sourdough bread;
• help to break down dead organic matter; & make up the base of the food web in many environments.

The true or “Eubacteria”
• UNICELLULAR PROKARYOTES (No true nucleus)
• Are the greatest number of living things on earth.• No membrane bound organelles• Circular double strand of DNA
• “Eu” means true. Eubacteria are the common, true bacteria- causing strep throat, food poisioning, tooth decay, fermenting milk into yogurt, etc.

3. Protists• Made of a variety of organisms that don’t
“fit” anywhere else. Some are not very much like the others in this group.
• EUKARYOTIC (has a true, membrane bound nucleus)
• 50,000 species- many unicellular, some are like fungi, some like plants or animals.
• Includes protozoans, unicellular algae, slime molds & water molds
Domain: Eukarya, Kingdom Protista

4. Fungi
• Unicellular & multicellular• HETEROTROPHIC (eats something
else)
–NOT like plants (photosyntheic)
100,000 species include mushrooms, puffballs, rusts, mildew & molds

5. Plantae • Multicellular & Photosynthetic
Autotrophs (food by photosynthesis) They are the chief producers of the world.
• Found in all the types of environments: aquatic algae, amphibian mosses, and terrestrial ferns and seed-bearing plants.
• 350,000 species identified.
