Learning Goal 1: SWBAT describe levels of biological classification and identify components of the scientific names of organisms. (5 questions)
Taxonomy is the science of identifying
species and arranging them into a
classification system.
A classification system is a way of grouping
organisms by their type.
Today, scientists use the six-kingdom
classification system, which groups species in
six kingdoms based on their characteristics.
Biggest taxonomic group (includes the most
organisms) = a kingdom. Smallest group = a
species.
The number of species classified in each
kingdom ranges from 60,000 (kingdom
Protista) to many millions (kingdom
Eubacteria), with more being discovered and
classified almost every day!
Binomial nomenclature (scientific name): Two-word name for a
species, with the genus name first and the species name second.
Scientific name for the human:
(genus) (species)
Scientific name for the dog:
(genus) (species)
The lowest taxonomic level in which humans and dogs are grouped
together is .
Unicellular Organisms
Multicellular Organisms

Learning Goal 3: SWBAT describe major differences between plants and animals, including internal structures, external structures, methods of locomotion, and methods of reproduction. (10 questions).
Animals Plants
Cell structures
Have cell membrane, nucleus, vacuoles,
mitochondria, like plants
No chloroplasts
No cell wall
Have cell membrane, nucleus, large central
vacuole, like animals
Have chloroplasts
Have cell wall
Locomotion Can move on their own (are mobile) Cannot move on their own (are not mobile)
