ClassificationClassification
• grouping objects grouping objects or organisms or organisms based on based on similaritiessimilarities
1. 1. TaxonomyTaxonomy – the science of – the science of classifying organismclassifying organism ss- - similaritiessimilarities among organisms indicates among organisms indicates
that they are somehow relatedthat they are somehow related
2.2. What categories are used to classify What categories are used to classify organismsorganisms??a.a. HomologiesHomologies – similar structures or – similar structures or
similar biochemistry that results from a similar biochemistry that results from a common ancestorcommon ancestor
b.b. Embryonic developmentEmbryonic development – development – development of fetusof fetus
c.c. Genetics Genetics – DNA and gene similarities– DNA and gene similaritiesd.d. Evolutionary historyEvolutionary history
History of Classification History of Classification SystemsSystems
1.1. Aristotle - ~350 BCAristotle - ~350 BC
a.a. Developed the 1Developed the 1stst widely widely accepted classification systemaccepted classification system
b.b. Divided organisms into plants or Divided organisms into plants or animalsanimals
c.c. Plants were further divided by Plants were further divided by size and structure (trees, shrubs, size and structure (trees, shrubs, herbs)herbs)
d. d. Animals were classified by where Animals were classified by where they lived (land, sea, or air)they lived (land, sea, or air)
Early ClassificationEarly Classification
• Previous classification system – 2 kingdom: Previous classification system – 2 kingdom: Plantae and Animalia Plantae and Animalia
• Declared inadequateDeclared inadequate
• Next system: addedNext system: added– Protista - microorganisms and bacteria – Protista - microorganisms and bacteria – – Fungi – mushrooms, molds, and yeastsFungi – mushrooms, molds, and yeasts
Carolus LinneausCarolus Linneausa.a. Classification system based on Classification system based on
physical and structural physical and structural similarities of organismssimilarities of organisms
b.b. System called – System called – Binomial Binomial nomenclaturenomenclature – two word names – two word names
i.i. 11stst part – Genus part – Genus ii.ii. 22ndnd part – Species part – Species
c.c. LatinLatin
d.d. Ex. Humans – Ex. Humans – Homo sapiensHomo sapiense.e. Scientific names must be in Scientific names must be in italicsitalics
or or underlined underlined f.f. Genus name is capitalized, species Genus name is capitalized, species
name is lower casename is lower case
Scientific NamesScientific Namesi.i. common names can be common names can be
misleading because they vary misleading because they vary (language or location)(language or location)
ii.ii. scientific names are scientific names are recognized worldwiderecognized worldwide
iii.iii. scientific names indicate scientific names indicate relationships – relationships – 1.1. Maple Trees – Genus – AcerMaple Trees – Genus – Acer
2.2. Acer rubrumAcer rubrum – red maple – red maple
3.3. Acer saccharumAcer saccharum – sugar maple – sugar maple
Classification GroupsClassification Groups • TaxonTaxon – a group of organism (plural – – a group of organism (plural –
taxa)taxa)• Seven Classification Taxa Seven Classification Taxa ––
1.1. KingdomKingdom – largest taxa, includes – largest taxa, includes many types of organism with some many types of organism with some similaritiessimilarities
2.2. PhylumPhylum3.3. ClassClass4.4. OrderOrder5.5. FamilyFamily6.6. GenusGenus7.7. SpeciesSpecies – smallest category, only – smallest category, only
includes one type of organismincludes one type of organism
• Similar species grouped in one GenusSimilar species grouped in one Genus
• Similar Genus are grouped in one family & so onSimilar Genus are grouped in one family & so on
• Categories – always based on similarities Categories – always based on similarities among organismsamong organisms
• Ex.Ex. – – Phylum Chordata –Phylum Chordata – backbones backbones
• Class MammalClass Mammal – warm-blooded, hair or fur, – warm-blooded, hair or fur, produce milk for youngproduce milk for young
• Order Carnivore - Order Carnivore - sharp teeth, claws, hunt and sharp teeth, claws, hunt and eat meateat meat
• As we learn more, the classification of an As we learn more, the classification of an organism can changeorganism can change
• SpeciesSpecies – a group of organisms that can mate – a group of organisms that can mate and produce fertile youngand produce fertile young

Biological KeysBiological Keys• also called dichotomous (2 branched) keyalso called dichotomous (2 branched) key
• series of paired (2) statements that compare series of paired (2) statements that compare or describe characteristics of organisms in or describe characteristics of organisms in order to identify themorder to identify them
• To use a key you always start with the first To use a key you always start with the first set of sentences, read the description, set of sentences, read the description, compare it to your organism, then follow the compare it to your organism, then follow the instructions to continue the keyinstructions to continue the key
• YYou will work to find the name through ou will work to find the name through descriptions until the name of your organism descriptions until the name of your organism is givenis given
How to make a dichotomous How to make a dichotomous keykey
• divide your samples into 2 groups using divide your samples into 2 groups using one characteristicone characteristic
• write a set of 2 sentences describing the write a set of 2 sentences describing the characteristics you have used to divide characteristics you have used to divide your object/organismsyour object/organisms
• Characteristics must be objective (ex. 5 Characteristics must be objective (ex. 5 cm) not subjective (ex. Short/long)cm) not subjective (ex. Short/long)
