Biology Content Standards 2. Cell Biology Broad Concept: Cells have specific structures and functions
that make them distinctive. Processes in a cell can be
classified broadly as growth, maintenance, and reproduction. 2.3 Use cellular evidence (such as cell structure, cell number,
and cell reproduction) and modes of nutrition to describe
six kingdoms (Archaebacteria, Eubacteria, Protista, Fungi,
Plantae, Animalia).
5.2 Describe species as reproductively distinct groups of
organisms. Recognize that species are further classified into a
hierarchical taxonomic system (kingdom, phylum, class, order,
family, genus, species) based on morphological, behavioral,
and molecular similarities. Describe the role that geographic
isolation can play in speciation.

Taxonomy branch of biology
dealing with the
identification
and naming of
organisms.
Carolus Linnaeus Swedish botanist who devised a system
of grouping organisms into hierarchical
categories based on morphology.

Botanists sometimes
split species into
subsets known as
varieties.

nectarines are fruits
of the 2 slightly
different varieties of
the peach tree,
Prunus persica.

BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE A system of 2-part Latin names created by Linnaeus and still in use today.
This is Linnaeus’s greatest contribution to biology!
The scientific name
of an organism consists
of 2 parts: Genus species.
Lion is Panthera leo Sunflower is Helianthus annuus

Highlights the importance of Archaebacteria as a life form
THE THREE –DOMAIN SYSTEM
• An alternative to the 6-kingdom system of
classification.
• Based on the young science of molecular biology.
• By comparing sequences of ribosomal RNA, a
scientist can estimate how long ago pairs of
different organisms shared a common ancestor.
Because all organisms, even prokaryotes, have
ribosomes, rRNA can be used to study the degree
of relationship between any two living things.

• Domain ARCHAEA the Archaebacteria
• Domain BACTERIA the Eubacteria
• Domain EUKARYA Protists, Fungi, Plants, Animals
• Most of the variation in this domain is among the
protists. Surprisingly, when considered from the
perspective of the complete diversity of life on Earth,
the fungi, plants, and animals are quite similar to each
other!

Taxonomy Today A running debate in taxonomy is “Which characteristics are biologically most important?”
Systematics Organizes the tremendous diversity of living things in the context of evolution.
• Species shown to be closely related are classified
together.
• Other species that may look alike but possess
analogous structures only are classified in different
groups.

Phylogenetic Tree A family tree that shows the evolutionary relationship thought to exist among groups of organisms. It is a hypothesis.

• A relatively new system of phylogenetic classification which
uses certain features of organisms, called SHARED DERIVED
CHARACTERS (features that apparently evolved only within
the group under consideration, for example, birds: feathers),
to establish evolutionary relationships.
• Shared derived characters, particularly a group of several
shared derived characters, are strong evidence of common
ancestry between organisms that share them.
