TRANSCRIPT
Imagine you are part of a discovery of a new species of fish.
How would you know it was a new species?
• What is a species? • What other characteristics would you look
for?• What other characteristics does it have in
common with known fish species?
Classification
• the grouping of objects or information based on similarities
• Taxonomy: the branch of biology that groups and names organisms based on their characteristics

Classification
Aristotle: a Greek philosopher, was the first to classify organisms into two groups
Two groups… hmmm.
Two groups… hmmm.
Group 1: Plants
Herbs
Shrubs
Trees
Plants
• How are the plants grouped or classified?
Size
Structure
Group 2: Animals
Land Air Water
Animals
• How are the animals grouped or classified?
Habitat

Classification
• Linnaeus: used Latin (a dead language) to classify organisms by physical and structural similarities If it looks like a dog
and it smells like a dog, then it must be a
dog.
If it looks like a dog and it smells like a
dog, then it must be a dog.
Why Latin?
Latin is a dead language, so it does not change.
Linneaus
Created BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE: a two-named naming system, bi = 2
Binomial Nomenclature
Uses 2 Latin names to describe an organism• Scientific name (genus and species) • Ex. Humans: Homo sapiensHomo = same sapiens = wise
Binomial Nomenclature
– Genus always begins with CAPITAL LETTER– species always begins with lower case letter– If typed, in italics– If hand written, underlined
Binomial Nomenclature
• Write your name in binomial nomenclature
One more thing…
• Phylogeny – shows the evolutionary relationship based on similarities
Taxonomic Levels

Taxonomic levels of a lynx and human
EukaryaAnimaliaChordataMammaliaPrimateHominidaeHomosapiens
SalamanderDichotomousKey• Tool for
grouping organisms
• 2 choices or questions for each step
Salamander Classification
Viruses
• Non living particles-must have host to reproduce- parasitic
• Smaller than bacteria• Have a chromosome ( DNA or RNA)• Can cause diseases: HIV, chicken pox, herpes,
cancer• Can be helpful: flower color patterns, vaccines
www.eurekalert.org/multimedia/pub/3565.php
How to prevent viral infection
• Avoid others’ body fluids• Vaccine – ex. “Gardasil”, T-cells capture
antigen, stimulate B-cells (WBC) to produce antibodies

HIV AIDS• After exposure, virus hides in cells (as provirus)• Can hide for years• When triggered, ex. Stress, becomes lytic virus• Causes Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome
(AIDS)• Die from secondary infections, ex. Pneumonia

AIDS• Daily, 8,000 people die from AIDS related
illnesses (3 million/year)
• Treat bacterial infections with antibiotics• Treat HIV infection with antiviral drugs
Bacterial Ubiquity• Are bacteria everywhere?• Choose a location to swab.• Inoculate an agar plate divided into
quadrants.• Incubate overnight• Note growth (0 – 5, none – lawn)Quadrant Location Tester Growth

Bacteria
• Has a cell wall and capsule• Has single circular chromosome• May have a small circle of DNA called a plasmid.• Prokaryotic – no nucleus• Make toxins• Diseases: strep throat, tetanus, tooth decay• Can be killed with antibiotics• Benefits: digest food, decomposer, medicine,
make food-pickles, cheese, yogurt

Bacterial Infections
• Strep Throat – streptococcus
• Anthrax – bacillus
• Lyme Disease – spirochete

Bacterial Transformation
• Using bacteria for our benefit
• Add foreign DNA to a bacterium to make useful products
• Cause bacteria to transform to new producers
http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/real-transformer-movie-5.jpg
Transformation
• Get host cells ready• Add foreign DNA plasmid• Let cells recover• Allow cells to grow and produce desired
protein• Collect protein for use, ex. Insulin
(Insulin used to be made from a pig pancreas)

Transformation Lab
Purpose: Add foreign DNA plasmid to bacteria to make them glow
GFP = green fluorescent proteinAMP = ampicillin (antibiotic)ARA = arabinose (sugar for protein synthesis)LB = luria broth (growth medium)+ = pGLO plasmid (has GFP gene and ampicillin
resistance)
Transformation Lab
E. Coli and LB only

Euglena
Kingdom Protista
• Most diverse organisms• Locomotion: Ameba
uses pseudopodsEuglena uses flagellumParamecium uses cilia

Protists
• Named for their locomotion (how they move)• Have a contractile vacuole
to remove excess water (homeostasis)
• Can cause disease

Fungi
• Decomposers• Used to make beer, wine, and bread• Have a cell wall made of CHITIN• Ex. Molds, mushrooms, yeast
