What is Classification?What is Classification?
ClassificationClassification is the is the arrangement of organisms arrangement of organisms into orderly into orderly groupsgroups based based on their on their similaritiessimilarities
Classification is also known Classification is also known as as taxonomytaxonomy
Taxonomists Taxonomists are scientists are scientists that identify & name that identify & name organismsorganisms

Benefits of ClassifyingBenefits of Classifying
•Accurately & uniformlyAccurately & uniformly names organisms names organisms
•Prevents Prevents misnomersmisnomers such such as starfish & jellyfish that as starfish & jellyfish that aren't really fish aren't really fish
•Uses Uses same language same language (Latin or some Greek)(Latin or some Greek) for for all names all names

•ThreeThree domains domains
•Domain Archaea and Domain Domain Archaea and Domain BacteriaBacteria consist of unicellular consist of unicellular prokaryotes (no nucleus or prokaryotes (no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles)membrane-bound organelles)
•Domain EukaryaDomain Eukarya consist of consist of more complex eukaryotes and more complex eukaryotes and have a nucleus and have a nucleus and membrane-bound organellesmembrane-bound organelles
DomainsDomains
The grouping of organisms into domains and kingdoms is based on three factors:
1. Cell type
2. Cell number
3. Feeding type
1. Cell type – The presence or absence of cellular structures such as the nucleus, mitochondria, or cell wall.
Prokaryotes & Eukaryotes
Prokaryotes
Do not have:
* A membrane bound nucleus
* No membrane bound organelles
Prokaryotes
Do Have:
* DNA
* Ribosomes
* Cytoplasm
* Cell membrane
Typical Prokaryotic Cell
EukaryotesDo Have:* A membrane bound Nucleus* Other smaller Organelles - any of a number of organized or specialized structures within a living cell.
Typical Eukaryotic Cell
2. Cell Number – whether the organism exist as a single cell or as many cells.
Unicellular – single celled organism
Multi-cellular – many celled organism
3. Feeding Type – How organisms get their food.
Autotrophs – (producer) Makes it’s own food
Heterotrophs – (consumer)Must eat other organisms to survive

DOMAIN ARCHAEA•Kingdom - ARCHAEBACTERIA
•Probably the 1st cells to evolve
•Live in HARSH environments
•Found in:
–Sewage Treatment Plants (Methanogens)
–Thermal or Volcanic Vents (Thermophiles)
–Hot Springs or Geysers that are acid
–Very salty water (Dead Sea; Great Salt Lake) - Halophiles

DOMAIN BACTERIA
•Kingdom - EUBACTERIA
•Some may cause DISEASE
•Found in ALL HABITATS except harsh ones
•Important decomposers for environment
•Commercially important in making cottage cheese, yogurt, buttermilk, etc.

AnimalsAnimals are divided into Phyla based on their different characteristics. Two major characteristics are...
1. Backbone
a.Vertebrate
b.Invertebrate
2. Symmetrya. Bilateral (mirror halves) b. Radial (circular)
c. Asymmetry (no equal divisions)
Symmetry - the trait of being made up of similar parts facing each other or around an axis.
Vertebrates There are five groups of vertebrates:
Birds Fish
Reptiles
Amphibians
Mammals
Amphibians*Have moist skin*Lay jelly coated eggs in water*Lives on land and water
Birds*Have feathers and hollow bones
*Lay hard shelled eggs
*Endotherm/Warm blooded
Fish*Have wet scales
*Lays eggs in water
*Live in water
Mammals
*Have hair and produce milk
*Give birth to live offspring
*Endotherm/Warm blooded
Reptiles
*Have dry scales
*Lay leathery shelled eggs
*Ectotherm/Cold blooded
Summary of Vertebrates
InvertebratesThese are animals without a backboneThere are eight groups of invertebrates:
MollusksFlatworms AnnelidsRoundwormsSpongesEchinodermsCnidariansArthropods
Mollusks*Crawl on a single fleshy pad.
*Can have a shell
Flatworms
Have flat worm like bodies
Annelids*Have round worm like bodies
*Have bodies divided into segments
Roundworms*Have long thin round worm like bodies
*Have bodies with no segments
Sponges
Have bodies made of loosely joined cells
Echinoderms
*Have bodies divided into five parts
*Have spiny outer covering
Cnidarians*Have thin sack like bodies
*Have tentacles
*Have stinging cells (nematocyst)
Arthropods
Have lots of legs and segmented bodies.
There are four group of arthropods:
Arachnids
Centipedes & Millipedes
Crustaceans
Insects
Arthropods - Arachnid
*Have four pairs of legs.
*Have bodies divided into two sections
Arthropods – Centipedes & Millipedes
Have long thin bodies and pairs of legs on each of their many body sections
Arthropods - Crustacean
*Have five-seven pairs of legs
*First pair often used as pincers
*Bodies covered in shell
Arthropods - Insects*Have three pairs of legs
*Bodies divided into three sections
*Often have wings
