Three things that all living things need:
1 food1 food
2 water2 water
3 a place to live3 a place to live
What characteristics determine how to classify
an organism into a kingdom?
• How many cells they are made up of
• If those cells have a nucleus
• How they get their nutrition
The five characteristics of living things are that they:
1 Are made of cells 1 Are made of cells
2 Respond to stimuli2 Respond to stimuli
3 Use energy 3 Use energy
4 Reproduce4 Reproduce
5 Grow & develop5 Grow & develop
How do you know which animals are more closely related to others on a classification tree?The closer the branches are, the more alike the organisms are.
The closer to the bottom they are, the longer they have been on Earth.
The higher they are, the more complex they are.
Genus and species names
Where does the scientific name of a creature come from?
What saying can help you remember the order of the levels in a classification chart?
King Phillip
Came Over
For Good
Spaghetti
How do you write the scientific name for an organism?
• The genus name comes first and is always capitalized
• The species name comes second and always starts with a lower case letter
• If typed, use italics; if handwritten, underline itFelis domesticus Felis domesticusCanis familiaris Canis familiaris
virus• a parasite that often causes disease and that
consists essentially of an inner core of RNA or DNA surrounded by an outer protein coat;
• they are unable to reproduce without a host cell;
• not considered living organisms
What are some diseases caused by viruses?
• HIV / AIDS• Chicken Pox• Common Cold• Pink Eye
(Conjunctivitis)• Ebola• Hepatitis• Flu (Influenza)
• Measles• Meningitis• Mononucleosis• Norwalk Virus• Rabies• Rotavirus• West Nile• Small Pox
vaccine
• What is a possible treatment for a virus?
What conditions do bacteria like most?
• Most bacteria like a warm, dark, and moist environment.
Where can bacteria be found?
• everywhere
binary fission
• the process of one organism dividing into two organisms
• The one main chromosome makes a copy of itself. Then it divides into two.
endospore
• a thick walled, protective structure that forms inside a bacterial cell when conditions are unfavorable for survival (like a force field)
What are 3 ways to control bacteria in food?
1) Canning
2) Pasteurization
3) Dehydration
What are some diseases caused by bacteria?
• Food poisoning (Salmonella or E. coli)• Lyme disease• Tetanus• Tuberculosis• strep throat
What is a possible treatment for a bacterial infection?
• vaccine
• Antibiotics
antiseptics
• chemicals that kill bacteria on living things
• OK to be on your body
• i.e.: iodine, hydrogen peroxide, alcohol, soap, mouthwash
disinfectants
• stronger chemicals that destroy bacteria on objects or nonliving things
• not OK to be on your body
• i.e.: Lysol, bleach

Bacteria are classified by shape into 3 groups:
Archaebacteria
• Are organisms in this kingdom unicellular or multicellular?
• Do they have a nucleus? • Are they able to make their own food or must
they take in food? • Where are they found?
Archaebacteria
• Are organisms in this kingdom unicellular or multicellular? unicellular
• Do they have a nucleus? prokaryote• Are they able to make their own food or must
they take in food? autotrophic/heterotrophic• Where are they found? They are often found
in extreme conditions, such as hot springs.
Eubacteria
• Are organisms in this kingdom unicellular or multicellular?
• Do they have a nucleus? • Are they able to make their own food or must
they take in food? • Which is the larger kingdom of bacteria?
Eubacteria
• Eubacteria are unicellular organisms.• They are prokaryotes.• Some of them are able to make their own
food, while some of them must take in food-- autotrophic/heterotrophic
• This is the larger of the two bacteria kingdoms.
Protists
• Are organisms in this kingdom unicellular or multicellular?
• Do they have a nucleus? • Are they able to make their own food or must
they take in food? • Into what groups are they divided?
Protists
• Some protists are single-celled organisms and some are made of many cells.
• All protists have a nucleus. eukaryotes• Some of them are able to make their own
food, while some of them must take in food.• They are divided into three groups-plant-like,
animal-like, and fungus-like.
Fungi
• Are organisms in this kingdom unicellular or multicellular?
• Do they have a nucleus? • Are they able to make their own food or must
they take in food? • How do they help the Earth?
Fungi
• Most fungi are made of many cells.• All fungi have a nucleus. eukaryotes• All fungi must take in food.• Fungi are important sources of food and
medicines. • They help recycle Earth’s wastes.• The only unicellular fungi are yeast.
Plants
• Are organisms in this kingdom unicellular or multicellular?
• Do they have a nucleus? • Are they able to make their own food or must
they take in food? • Name one important thing plants provide.
Plants
• All plants are made of many cells. multicellular• All plants have a nucleus. eukaryotes• All plants make their own food. autotrophs• Plants produce food and oxygen, which are
required by most organisms on Earth.
Animals
• Are organisms in this kingdom unicellular or multicellular?
• Do they have a nucleus? • Are they able to make their own food or must
they take in food? • What do they provide humans with?
Animals
• All animals are multicellular.• All animals have a nucleus. eukaryote• All animals must take in food. heterotrophs• Animals provide food and companionship in
your daily lives.
Vocabulary
• Lesson 16
classification
• 8. grouping organisms or objects based on similarities and differences between them
taxonomy
• 9. the branch of science that deals naming organisms and classifying them into groups
dichotomous key
• 10. a tool to classify organisms by choosing their characteristics from a series of paired statements
binomial nomenclature
• a naming system where every organism is given a two-part name (scientific name)
Dichotomous Keys
• The identification of biological organisms can be greatly simplified using tools such as dichotomous keys.
• A dichotomous key is an organized set of couplets (paired statements) of characteristics of organisms.
Dichotomous Keys
• You simply compare the characteristics of an unknown organism against an appropriate dichotomous key.
• These keys will begin with general characteristics and lead to couplets (paired statements) indicating progressively specific characteristics. If the organism falls into one category, you go to the next indicated couplet.
• By following the key and making the correct choices, you should be able to identify your specimen to the indicated taxonomic level.
