8 Notes Page -8 Levels of Classification: Please construct an acronym below to help you remember the levels of classification that scientists use to identify the organisms in our world! Remember that your acronym should make sense and it should be meaningful to you. Acronyms can be funny or serious! Once you finish your acronym, illustrate it! KINGDOM Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species Illustration Naming Look at the information given in the chart. Highlight the Genus and species for each organism. 3. Rewrite the Genus and the species name in the box that says scientific name a. MAKE SURE first letter of the genus capitalized and the species completely in lower case). You may try to write in italics if you want to. b. For example, a domestic dog is: Canis domesticus 4. Write the abbreviated name in the box that says scientific name (abbreviated). a. Use the first letter of the genus name (capitalized) and the entire species name (lower case) - Tyrannosaurus rex becomes T. rex Kingdom Protista Plantae Phylum Ciliphora Tracheophyta Kingdom Animalia Class Ciliatea Angiosperma Phylum Chordata Order Phabdophorina Rosales Class Mammalia Family Parameciidae Rosaceae Order Proboscidea Family Elephantidae Genus Paramecium Rosa Genus Elephas Species Aurelia Gallica Species Scientific Name: Scientific Name: (abbreviated) Maximus Scientific Name: Scientific Name: (abbreviated)

13 Labs Page -13 Building Background Knowledge Read the instructions below and answer the following questions. The science of classifying and naming organisms is called taxonomy. The first system for classifying living things was developed over 2000 years ago by Aristotle, a Greek philosopher! He divided all known living things into two groups which he called the plant kingdom and the animal kingdom. Each group was further divided on the basis of where they lived, their size, and structure. Carolus Linnaeus, a Swedish doctor who loved nature, created a system for classifying organisms in the 100 s. His system was based on similarities of body structures and systems, size, color and methods of obtaining food. Linnaeus was also credited for developing the naming system we use, known as binomial nomenclature. Scientists discover and name hundreds of organisms each year. When a new organism is discovered for the first time, how do biologists decide what it is? The first step is to examine its characteristics. Organisms with similar characteristics are grouped together. In addition to characteristics used in Linnaeus system, today s scientists also study an organism s DNA to help them understand where it fits into the scheme of living things. 1) Describe Aristotle s early system of classification. 2) What characteristics did Carlous Linnaeus use to group organisms in his system of classification? Part 1: Grouping organisms based on similarities and differences Directions: 1) Obtain a set of Organism Cards from your teacher. 2) Looking at the pictures on the cards, quickly organize them into six different groups based on the common characteristics they seem to have. 3) In the chart below, write the title for each of your six groups, the characteristics you used to classify them and write the number found on each card (i.e. 1, 2, 3)

14 Chart: Classifying Organisms Labs Page -14 Group Title Group Characteristics Organisms (Numbers) 4) Prepare to explain to the class what characteristics you used to classify the organisms on the cards this will be a graded presentation and everyone needs a part! Final Question: 3) After reading about classification systems developed by Aristotle and Linnaeus, which system is most similar to the way your group classified the organisms on the cards. Why (yes that means more than a one-word answer!)? Part 2: Using Dichotomous Keys to Group Organisms into Six Kingdoms Step 1: Find the characteristics for each kingdom in your standards packet. Complete the Characteristics Column on the chart on the next page. Step 2: Classify the organisms pictured on the organism cards. Use the dichotomous key given to you to group each organism into its correct kingdom: Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, Archaebacteria or Eubacteria. Use the kingdom characteristics you have written on your chart and the information on the cards to guide you. Step 3: As you classify each organism into its correct kingdom, enter each organisms name and number in the column on the right side of the chart.

15 Kingdom Characteris cs Organisms Archaebacteria Labs Page -15 Eubacteria Pro sta Fungi Plantae Animalia

16 Labs Page -16 Questions 1) Compare and contrast your two classification charts the first one you made and the one with the dichotomous key. How are they similar? How are they different? 2) Which kingdoms contain organisms without a nucleus prokaryotes? Give examples of organisms in this kingdom. 3) Suppose scientists have observed a new organism and want to classify and research it. What questions should they ask as they begin to classify it? 4) What are some advantages of using a classification system common to all scientists?
