Explore the importance of classification in biology, learn how animals are named using binomial nomenclature, and understand the hierarchical levels of Linnaeus' classification system.
E N D
Bioclassification aka: “classification”
Why classify? What is the name of this animal?
Depending where you live… You might call this animal a: Puma Lion Panther Cougar
Binomial Nomenclature by: Carlous Linnaeus System where each species is assigned a two-part scientific name. * the name is Latin & italicized ~Use creature’s characteristics & dichotomus key to determine name * the first word is capitalized
common name: mule deer Latin name: Odocoileus hemionus Binomial Nomenclature Example
Linnaeus’ Classification System • Includes 8 levels of taxonmy • taxonomy = specific group based on characteristics • Characteristics developed over time cladograms. • Order: largest taxaindividual organism: Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species
Domains (Most-inclusive taxonomic category. Larger than a kingdom) Archaea Bacteria Corresponds to Kingdom Archae (really old bacteria Domain) Eubacteria Corresponds to Kingdom Eubacteria (bacteria Domain) Eukarya Composed of protists, fungus, plants & animals (our Domain!)
Kingdoms (six) Archae Bacteria Protista Fungi (saprocytes) Plantae Animalia

Kingdom Protista Has Nucleus = Eukarya Live in WATERMulticellular “protozoans” = animal-like Heterotrophs
Kingdom Fungi Has NUCLEUS = Eukaryote CELL WALLS!!! 2+ cells HETEROTROPHS stationary decomposers sex
Kingdom Plantae NUCLEUS = Eukaryote CELL WALLS AUTOROPHS (photosynthesis) stationary 2+ cells sex

Kingdom Animalia Has NUCLEUS = Eukaryote heterotrophs 2+ cells mobile sex

Linnaeus’ Classification System • Includes 8 levels of taxonmy • taxonomy = specific group based on characteristics • Characteristics developed over time cladograms. • Order: largest taxaindividual organism: Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species
All you need to know: Species (the last group) = most exclusive taxon (it’s the smallest class)
