What do you know about scientific classification?
Click on the correct answer on each slide.
Scientists classify all living things into 5 different groups.
• Monerans (Always 1 celled and do not have a cell nuclei)
• Protista (Most 1 celled and do have a cell nuclei)
• Fungi (Many celled, absorb their food from others)
• Plantae (Many celled, make their own food)
• Animalae (Many celled, feed on living or once living things.
The 5 Kingdoms
Bonus Question: Why are the names of the kingdoms spelled “funny”?

Bonus Answer: Because they are in Latin, a language everyone could read when scientific classification was first organized.
Examples:
Monerans: Plague bacteria Protista: paramecium
Fungi: Star shaped Penicillin MoldPlantae: Buckthorn Cactus
Animalae: Ewe and Lamb
Bonus Question: Which of these kingdoms contains organisms that are parasites?
Some Common Examples of Each Group
MoneransInfected cut:
Staph Bacteria
Diarrhea: Salmonella

Bad breath: Mouth

Pink Eye: Staph

Yogurt: Bacteria

Methane Gas:

Protista amoeba algae diatoms paramecium plankton
Fungi mushrooms puff ball mold mildew penicillin yeast blue cheese
Plantae grass tomato peach oak tree moss sea weed fern
Animalae Snake Lobster Human Snail Frog Cat Opossum
Bonus Question Answer: Monerans, Protista, Fungi. Plantae and Animalae all contain many parasitic organisms. Parasites live in a host organism damaging it in some way.

animalae monerans plantae protista
Check the classification examples
• I can cause bad smells and make you sick
• I can also make corn into gas for your car and rubber
• I have just 1 cell
• I do not have a nucleus
Test Yourself: What kingdom am I?
Bacteria Colonies Growing in Agar Culture before
Pasteurization.
Test Yourself: What kingdom am I?
• I have many cells
• My cells have strong rigid walls
• I use chloroplasts to turn sunlight into food for my self.
protista animalae plantae fungi
Check the classification examples
RIGHT!• Plants have a rigid cell wall since they do not have a skeleton.
• Plants manufacture energy from the sun using the chloroplasts in their cells.
• Plants have many cells.
• I have only 1 cell
• I have a cell nucleus
• I am a favorite food of many whales

Test Yourself: What kingdom am I?
RIGHT!
• Many whales eat diatoms and plankton which are protists
• Protists have only 1 cell
• Protists always have a cell nucleus
• I have many cells
• I do not have chloroplasts but I do have a cell nucleus
• I reproduce with spores
• I do not make my own food.

Test Yourself: What kingdom am I?
RIGHT!
• Fungi have many cells
• Fungi absorb their food, they do not make it
• Fungi do not have chloroplasts in their cells
• I have many cells
• My cells do not have rigid walls
• I feed on living or once-living things.

Test Yourself: What Kingdom Am I?
RIGHT!
• Animals have many cells
• Animals get their food from other living or once living things
• Animals cells do not have rigid cell walls (or chloroplasts)

More About Classification
• Each group is divided into smaller groups with similar characteristics.
• Phylums are groups of organisms
with similar basic body types. • Organisms within the same species are so similar they can produce offspring together.

Bonus Question: Where does the name “Chordata” come from?
Test Yourself: if my name is -Chordata (backbone) Mammalia (warm blooded) Primate Hominid (two legs) Homo Sapiens (intelligent)
Which picture is probably me?
Bonus Question Answer: From the word cord as in spinal cord.
WRONG!
Remember in scientific classification, the scientific name describes the organism.
Try the question again!
Test Yourself: my scientific name is -Animalia (Animal) Invertebrata (no backbone) Arthropoda (Joint Footed) Insecta (six legs) Hymenoptera (Membrane Wing) Diptera Formicidae Myrmex
Which picture describes me?
RIGHT!
• Ants have 6 legs and have segmented bodies• Ants have no backbone. Their skeleton is their external shell• Ants develop membraned wings for mating in the spring• Ants smell like formic acid and so are named Formicidae
WRONG!
Remember: a scientific name describes the organism.
Snakes have NO legs, not six.
Try the question again!
WRONG!
Remember: a scientific name describes the organism. A tree would not be in the animal kingdom, it would be in the plant kingdom.
Try the question again!
Test Yourself: In this picture -
Animalia (Animal) Invertebrata (No Backbone) Mollusca (Shell)Gastropoda (Stomach Foot) Stylommatophora
Would be the scientific name for Uncle Sam
Would be the scientific name for the snail.
RIGHT!
• Snails’ stomachs open into their foot.• Snails are protected by an external shell and have no skeleton or backbone.
WRONG!
Remember scientific names describe the organism.• Uncle Sam does not have a shell• Uncle Sam does not eat through his feet!
