When you go shopping in the grocery store, similar items are often placed on the same aisle. Why? They are most often related to each other.
In science, classification is the arrangement of organisms into orderly groups based on their similarities.
Introduction
What is taxonomy?Textbook Reference pg. 443 Scientists classify the
diverse number of organisms on the planet in order to learn and study from them into hierarchical groups (from general to more specific categories).
In this unit you will learn how scientists classify living things; the science of taxonomy.
Who was Carl von Linne? Textbook Reference pg. 444
Von Linne [AKA Carolus Linnaeus] was the Swedish biologist who in the mid-1700’s developed the biological system of classification. ◦7 taxonomic levels [or
Domain Archaea Members of the domain Archaea are bacteria
[prokaryotes] that live in very extreme environments (hot volcanic springs, black organic mud, etc) and many can only survive in the absence of oxygen!
Archaea were first found in extreme environments, such as volcanic hot springs.
Pictured here is Grand Prismatic Spring of Yellowstone National Park.
Regular everyday bacteria [prokaryotes] belong to domain Bacteria.
EX Salmonella
Domain Bacteria
According to the Mayo Clinic there are more than 2,000 strains of salmonella bacteria, but only a dozen or so make people sick. Salmonella is most often contracted by eating raw or undercooked meat, poultry, eggs. Image
or decomposer Motile = organism moves Sessile = stationary, does not move
Relevant Kingdom Vocabulary
Prokaryotic Kingdoms Textbook Reference pg. 456-
457 Eubacteria – bacteria common to “YOU” and me◦Cell Type: Prokaryotic, Unicellular◦Energy: Autotrophic and heterotrophic
Archae bacteria – live in harsh environments (highly salty or acidic, high temperatures) ; mostly anaerobic w/out oxygen◦Prokaryotic◦Unicellular◦Autotrophic only
n 1692 some teenage girls in Salem, Massachusetts, accused a West Indian slave named Tituba and two white women of practicing witchcraft. By April the girls began to denounce others as witches, including a former minister. In total close to 150 people were accused. "Both women and men, such as George Jacobs, stood trial for witchcraft in Salem, 1692." Gale Encyclopedia of U.S. History: Government and Politics. Vol. 1. Detroit: Gale, 2008.

Plants – oxygen producers; create their food using photosynthesis (thus the green color). ◦Non-motile (do not move)◦Eukaryotes w/ cell walls of cellulose◦Multicellular◦Autotrophs
EX mosses, ferns, flowering and cone-bearing plants
