  3. Cards • How can you organize the cards on your table? As a table come up with the best organization that works best for playing cards.

  4. Classification • Classification – the division of organisms into groups, or classes based on specific characteristics • Classification helps answer: • How many known species are there? • What are the defining characteristics of each species? • What are the relationships between these species?

  5. The scientific study of how living things are classified is called taxonomy.

  6. Quick Check 3-2-1 • What are the 3 questions classification answers? • What are 2 new key terms we have learned? • What is one thing you have learned for the first time today?

  7. Binomial nomenclature is a naming system in which each organism is given a two-part name.
