Chapter 18 Classification
The diversity of life
![Page 2: Chapter 18 Classification The diversity of life. Why is it necessary to classify? 1.5 million species on the planet so all creatures must be organized](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649ed35503460f94be3798/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Why is it necessary to classify?• 1.5 million species on the
planet so all creatures must be organized with a universal system. We call this taxonomy.
• Scientists cannot use common names because they change depending on where you live.
For example: cougar, panther, puma, mountain lion all represent the same animal. It has a scientific name – Felis concolor

Scientific Names• Carolus Linneaus – Swedish botanist who
began the modern naming system.• Developed a two word naming system called
binomial nomenclature (latin)
• 2 name naming system • Scientific names are
• Descriptive• In Latin• 2 words – capitalize the first letter of the first
word and lowercase everything else. • First word is Genus second word is species
Ursus maritimus

Examplesscientific name = genus + species
• Homo sapien• Canis familiarius• Felis domesticus• Drosophilia melanogaster

Classification System• We organize all life on
Earth into 9 levels. Each level is called a taxon.
• Domain is the largest – 3 large groups (see below)
• Species is the smallest

Changing Number of Kingdoms
History of Kingdoms:• 1700’s - 2 kingdoms –Plants and Animals• 1800’s – 3 kingdoms – Plants, Animals, Protists
(pond water critters)• 1950’s – 5 kingdoms – Monera (bacteria),
Protists, Fungi, Plants and Animals• 1990’s – 6 kingdoms - Eubacteria,
Archaebacteria, Protists, Fungi, Plants and Animals.

Section 18-3 Kingdoms and Domains• Shown below are the three domains and the 6 modern
kingdoms we use today.

Domain: Bacteria and Archaea1. Kingdom: Bacteria• unicellular• prokaryotic• cell wall contains a
special molecule called peptidoglycan.
2. Kingdom: Archaebacteria
•Live in extreme environments
•Cell wall lacks peptidoglycan

Domain Eukarya3. Kingdom Protista
• Eukaryotic organisms (most are one celled)• Shows the greatest variety of organisms• Photosynthetic or heterotrophic
![Page 12: Chapter 18 Classification The diversity of life. Why is it necessary to classify? 1.5 million species on the planet so all creatures must be organized](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649ed35503460f94be3798/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Domain Eukarya4. Kingdom Fungi
• Absorptive heterotrophs – absorb nutrients through their bodies
• Feed on dead or decaying organic matter• Many are multicellular• Yeast is unicellular

Domain Eukarya5. Kingdom Plantae
• Multicellular• Autotrophs (do
photosynthesis)• Cellulose in cell wall

Domain Eukarya 6. Kingdom Animalia
• Multicellular• Heterotrophic• Eukaryotic• Invertebrates
and Vertebrates
