Classification of Biodiversity

by Camryn Halboth

Three Domains of Life

  • Archaea: single-celled organisms, ancient, diverse habitats, extreme conditions(extremophiles) ex. thermophiles(heat-loving),methanophiles(methane-loving), and halophiles (salt-loving)
  • Eubacteria: most familiar, make food taste good, helps intestines work, can give an infection
  • Eukaryote: all life besides Archaea and bacteria, membrane-bound organelles

Eight Levels of Taxonomy

  • Domain
  • Kingdom
  • Phylum
  • Class
  • Order
  • Family
  • Genus
  • Species

Acronym for Taxonomy

  • Dearest
  • King
  • Philip
  • Cooks
  • Only
  • Frogs
  • Growing
  • Strong

Full Identification of 2 species(human-plant)

  • Kingdom-Animalia-Plantae
  • Phylum-Chordata-Angiospermophyta
  • Class-Mammalia-Dictotyledoneae
  • Oder-Primate-Rosales
  • Family-Hominidae-Papilionaceae
  • Genus-Homo-Pisum
  • Species-sapiens-sativum

Binomial Nomenclature

  • the system of naming oragnisms using two names
  • ex. Myrmecophaga tridactyla ('eater of ants':anteater)
  • ex. Lepus articus (Arctic hare)

Plant phyla

  • Bryophyta: non-vascular, plants of very short stature; mosses
  • Filicinophyta: vascular,ferns and horsetails
  • Coniferophyta: woody stems; cedar, juniper, fir, and pine trees
  • Angiospermophyta: all plants that make flowers and have seeds surrounded by a fruit

Animal phyla

  • Porifera: sponges
  • Cnidaria: jellyfish and coral polyps
  • Annelida: segmented worms
  • Mollusca: snails, clams, and octopuses
  • Arthropoda: insects, spiders, and crustaceans
  • Chordata: vertebrates, the animals that have a backbone
  • Platylhelmintha: flatworms

Vertebrate Animal Classes

  • Fish:very diverse aquatic organisms that possess gills to absorb oxygen, and have skulls made of bone or cartilage
  • Amphibians: start lives in water,develop lungs, absorb oxygen, ectothermic
  • Reptiles: produce amniote eggs, scales,ectothermic
  • Birds: bipedal, wings for flight, feathers, lay eggs, lightweight, hollow bones, beaks
  • Mammals: hair, females produce milk to feed young, ground, water, or flight, thermoregulation
