Page 3: Classification of organisms

classification

• Grouping objects or organisms based on a set of conditions.

• For biologists, doing this with all of the organisms there are on the earth, it makes it easier to study them!

• There are many different ways to group organisms.

Page 4: Classification of organisms

Early systems of classification• Aristotle: plant or animal

• Then animals were further classified based on habitat and physical characteristics.

• Plants were further classified by size and structure, trees, shrubs

• This system did NOT take into account the changes and evolutionary history of the organisms.

Page 5: Classification of organisms

New systems of classification

• In the 18th century • Carolus Linnaeus developed • Taxonomy• A branch of biology concerned with

naming, identifying and classifying species based on morphological and behavioral similarities and differences.

• Linnaeus gave each organism 2 names • A genus and a species name and called

this binomial nomenclature.

Page 6: Classification of organisms

•   A systematic method of classifying plants and animals.

• Classification of organisms based on degrees of similarity representing evolutionary (phylogenetic) relatedness.

Page 7: Classification of organisms

Scientific Names

• Binomial nomenclature (Linnaeus)• A 2 name system so that not two organisms will

ever have the same name.

• The genus name is combined with a second name to make the species name unique.

• For example: humans• Genus Homo • Species Homo sapiens

Page 8: Classification of organisms

Why 2 names?• The name are Latin ( the language of science)• The first is the genus• The second is the epithet or specific identifying

name. They are both needed to identify the organism.

• Common names can vary but scientific are universal.

• First names are capitalized, second are not.• In books, names are italicized, if hand written

they are underlined. • The genus can be abbreviated with the first letter

Page 15: Classification of organisms

How has classification changed?

• Today classification looks at the evolutionary relationships and DNA similarities.

• Many organisms have been reclassified from where they were originally classified as new information is learned.

Page 16: Classification of organisms

genus

• A groups of organisms that are closely related and share a common ancestor.

Page 17: Classification of organisms

family

• A group of genera that have similar characteristics

Page 18: Classification of organisms

species

• Organisms so closely related that they can mate and produce fertile offspring in a natural setting.

• The “biological species concept”• There are exceptions to this definition but it

works for most organisms.• Phylogenetic species: goes with biologic and

says the organisms have evolved independently from an ancestral population.

Page 19: Classification of organisms

phylogeny

• The evolutionary history of a species.

• Where did it come from?

• When organisms become isolated they become different, this can lead to new species…

Page 20: Classification of organisms

characters• Inherited features that vary among species

• Used by scientists to help put together the evolutionary history of a species: its phylogeny.

• The more shared characters/the more closely related.

• Homologous structures show relationships

• Analogous structures don’t

Page 22: Classification of organisms

Dinosaurs and birds

• Oviraptor and sparrow

• Feathers, hollow spaces in bones similar bone structures to birds show more similarities to dinosaurs with birds then to reptiles.

Page 23: Classification of organisms

DNA sequences

• The more similar the sequences, the closer the relationship between the organisms.

Page 24: Classification of organisms

Molecular clocks

• Mutations occur randomly and can be used to determine how long the DNA has been mutating or changing from its original form.

• A major problem with this includes the fact that the genes don’t mutate at a constant rate!

• These are used to try to determine when a divergence from a common ancestor occurred.

Page 25: Classification of organisms

Mutations at a regular speed= molecular clock

Page 26: Classification of organisms

cladistics

• A way to study evolutionary relationships.

• It rebuilds phylogenies and hypothesizes evolutionary relationships using shared characters.

• Cladograms show branching diagrams where each species may have originated.

• Kind of like a pedigree!

Page 28: Classification of organisms

• Clades show hypothesized phylogeny based on DNA sequences, morphology all of the current information.

• Branches are called nodes.

• The closer to the end like species b and c, the more closely related..

Page 30: Classification of organisms

Page 32: Classification of organisms

Domains

• For now there are 3!

Page 33: Classification of organisms

Kingdoms/DomainsArchaea

(Archaebacteria) and

Bacteria (Eubacteria)

Page 34: Classification of organisms

Archaea /Archaebacteria

• Prokaryotic• Unicellular• No nucleus

• No peptidoglycan on the cell walls• Some similarities to eukaryotes in the

cytoplasm• Some Autotroph/ most heterotroph

Page 35: Classification of organisms

Archaebacteria

• The most primitive group, the archaebacteria, are today restricted to marginal habitats such as hot springs or areas of low oxygen concentration.

Three types of Archaebacteria: methanogens, halophiles, and thermacidophiles. They live in extreme habitats like very salty water!

prokaryotes

Domain and KingdomBacteria/Eubacteria

prokaryotesunicellularno nucleus

cell walls contain peptidoglycansome autotrophs/most heterotrophs

Page 37: Classification of organisms

• Organisms in this group lack membrane-bound organelles associated with higher forms of life. Such organisms are known as prokaryotes.

• Their small size, ability to rapidly reproduce (E. coli can reproduce by binary fission every 15 minutes), and diverse habitats/modes of existence make bacteria the most abundant and diversified kingdom on Earth.

Page 38: Classification of organisms

• Bacteria occur in almost every environment on Earth, from the bottom of the ocean floor, deep inside solid rock, to the cooling jackets of nuclear reactors.

binary fission

Page 46: Classification of organisms
Page 47: Classification of organisms

Endospores• are a method of survival, not one of

reproduction. Certain bacteria will form a spore within their cell membrane (an endospore) that allows them to wait out deteriorating environmental conditions.

• Certain disease causing bacteria (such as the one that causes the disease Anthrax) can be virulent (capable of causing an infection) 1300 years after forming their endospores

Page 48: Classification of organisms

All other Kingdoms are made up of Eukaryotic cells

Evolution of Eukaryotes

• The endosymbiosis hypothesis…

Page 50: Classification of organisms

PROTISTS ??eukaryotic

unicellular/ some multiheterotrophic and autotrophic

Page 51: Classification of organisms

• New classification??

• Some plant like some animal like.

• This is a great example of how the system is constantly changing based on new information!!!

Page 52: Classification of organisms

Classification of Protists

• The protists include heterotrophs, autotrophs, and some organisms that can vary their nutritional mode depending on environmental conditions.

• Protists occur in freshwater, saltwater, soil, and as symbionts within other organisms.

• Due to this tremendous diversity, classification of the Protista is difficult.

Page 53: Classification of organisms

Protozoa: Single-Celled, Motile Organisms “animal-like”

• This group of protists are single-celled, motile, heterotrophs.

• Most digest their food by vacuoles formed by phagocytosing other organisms (bacteria or other single-celled creatures).

• Reproduction varies greatly, from a binary fission-like process to true meiosis.

• The main distinguishing feature is the method of locomotion: flagella, cilia, or pseudopodia.

Page 54: Classification of organisms

Amoeboid Protozoa Use Pseudopods for Movement

• Amoeba and Pelomyxa move by extensions of their cytoplasm known as pseudopodia.

Page 55: Classification of organisms

Foraminifera

• live in the oceans and secrete a shell (also known as a test) composed of silica or calcium carbonate.

• Thus, the fossil record of forams is quite good. Oxygen isotope data from forams has been used to calculate ocean temperature fluctuations over the past 100,000 years.

Page 56: Classification of organisms

Sporozoans

• Members of this group cause malaria and toxoplasmosis.

• Toxoplasmosis is transmitted from cats to humans, with between 7 and 72% of the population infected, depending on the geographic area.

Page 57: Classification of organisms

Malaria

• infects an estimated 300 million people, and is spread by mosquitoes, transfusions, and shared hypodermic needles.

• Infected individuals can be treated with a variety of medicines. However, some of the sporazoans that cause malaria have developed immunity to some of the more commonly employed medicines.

Page 58: Classification of organisms
Page 59: Classification of organisms

Ciliates

• Ciliates are complex, heterotrophic protozoans that lack cell walls and use multiple small cilia for locomotion.

• To increase strength of the cell boundary, ciliates have a pellicle, a sort of tougher membrane that still allows them to change shape.

• Most of the 8000 species are freshwater. Most ciliates have two nuclei: a macronucleus that contains hundreds of copies of the genome and controls metabolisms, and a single small micronucleus that contains a single copy of the genome and functions in sexual reproduction.

Page 60: Classification of organisms

Paramecium is a common ciliate

“Plant like” ProtistsALGAE

• Photosynthetic Autotrophs

• Single and multicellular

• Phytoplankton are single cell: basis of food chain

• diatoms, dinoflagellates,

Page 63: Classification of organisms

Rhodophyta, the Red Algae

• . Carrageenan is an additive to puddings and ice creams; dried sheets of red algae are used in some Japanese dishes.

Phaeophyta, the Brown Algae

Page 65: Classification of organisms

Chlorophyta, the Green Algae

Page 66: Classification of organisms

diatoms

Page 67: Classification of organisms

Red tides

• are caused by population explosions of certain dinoflagellates that release a neurotoxin into the environment.

• Shellfish concentrate this toxin and it can kill people who eat the contaminated shellfish.

Page 68: Classification of organisms

Fungus-like Protists

• Slime molds and mildews

Page 69: Classification of organisms

Slime Molds

Slime molds are often classified as fungi

Page 70: Classification of organisms

Euglenoidsboth “plant and animal –like”

• Usually grouped with the plant like because they have the chloroplasts.

Page 73: Classification of organisms

Fungi • Fungi are almost entirely multicellular (with

yeast, Saccharomyces cerviseae, being a prominent unicellular fungus), Bread yeast

Page 74: Classification of organisms

• heterotrophic (deriving their energy from another organism, whether alive or dead), and usually having some cells with two nuclei (multinucleate, as opposed to the more common one, or uninucleate) per cell.

Page 75: Classification of organisms

• Ecologically this kingdom is important (along with certain bacteria) as decomposers and recyclers of nutrients.

• Economically, the Fungi provide us with food (mushrooms; Bleu cheese/Roquefort cheese; baking and brewing), antibiotics (the first of the wonder drugs, penicillin, was isolated from the fungus Penicillium), and crop parasites (doing several million dollars per year of damage).

Page 76: Classification of organisms
Page 77: Classification of organisms

Structures in the bodies of fungi

• Hyphae: filaments

• Fruiting bodies: reproductive structures

• Cell walls made up of chitin

• Mycelium: net like mass of hyphae

Page 78: Classification of organisms

• Beer and wine are produced through the action of fungi known as yeasts, such as Saccharomyces cerviseae.

• Many antibiotics are produced by fungi.

Page 79: Classification of organisms

• Fungi are important both as a source of food and in the preparation of food. Edible fungi include mushrooms, truffles, and morels. Cheeses such as Gorgonzola, Roquefort, Stilton, and bleu have fungal colonies that give theses cheeses their distinctive flavors.

Page 80: Classification of organisms

Reproduction of Fungi

• Budding

• Fragmentation

• spores

Page 81: Classification of organisms

Classification of Fungi • Over 60,000 species of fungi are known.

Fungi are classified by their method of reproduction (both sexual and asexual).

• Historically they have been divided into 5 taxonomic divisions: Chytridiomycota (chytirids), Zygomycota (mold), Ascomycota (Yeast or sac fungi), Basidiomycota (club mushrooms), and Deuteromycota (imperfect).

Page 82: Classification of organisms

Mutualistic symbiotic fungal relationships

• Lichens: fungus and algae

• Mycorrhizae: fungus and plant roots

Page 83: Classification of organisms

• Genus: Candida Disease(s): Candidiasis

Image Legend: Skin scraping from superficial candidiasis showing clusters of budding yeast cells and branching pseudohyphae.

Page 84: Classification of organisms

• Club fungi are important as commercial crops. They also cause many diseases that result in loss or reduction of grain yields.

• Agaricus campestris is the common mushroom found in grocery stores;

• Lentinus edodes is the less commonly bought shitake mushroom: more than $14 billion per year of these products are sold.

Page 85: Classification of organisms

• Amanita phalloides is the most poisonous of all mushrooms. Other mushrooms have hallucinogenic properties (such as the drug psilocybin) important in native religious rituals in Central and South America.

Viruses

Page 99: Classification of organisms
Page 100: Classification of organisms

adenovirus

The Adenovirus is a DNA virus that causes colds and "pink eye".

                                                                                                               

Page 101: Classification of organisms

The Papillomavirus is a DNA virus that causes warts.

Page 102: Classification of organisms

The Influenza virus causes the flu. It has RNA as its

genetic material instead of DNA.

Page 103: Classification of organisms

• Bacteriophages invade the host cell, take over the cell, and begin replicating viruses, eventually lysing or bursting the host cell, releasing the new viruses to infect additional cells.

Page 104: Classification of organisms

Lysogenic cycle

Page 105: Classification of organisms

Lytic Cycle

Page 106: Classification of organisms

Retroviruses

• Retroviruses have RNA and the enzyme reverse transcriptase instead of DNA as their nucleic acid core.

• Once inside the host cell, reverse transcription (making DNA from RNA) is accomplished by the reverse transcriptase, turning the single-stranded RNA into DNA. This new DNA is incorporated into the host DNA, where it transcribes new viral RNA genomes, as well as the RNA to synthesize new reverse transcriptase and protein capsules.

Page 107: Classification of organisms

• Viruses are usually quite specific as to their hosts and even to the types of cells they infect in a multicellular host.

• Viruses can NOT be treated with antibiotics because antibiotics are designed to attack the cell wall or membrane and viruses do not have these!

Page 108: Classification of organisms

Viroids and Prions

• Viruses would appear to be the simplest form of infectious particle.

• The discovery of viroids, nucleic acid without a protein capsule and prions, infectious proteins, subtracts another level of complexity.

• Both viroids and prions can cause diseases.

Review sheet

1. What is taxonomy?

It is a systematic method of classifying plants and animals.

2. What is binomial nomenclature?

It is a 2 name system so that no two organisms will ever have the same name.

3. Who is the person who came up with the 2 name system?

(Linnaeus)

Page 110: Classification of organisms

4. What are the levels of classification from least to most specific?
