| A | B |
|---|
| Archaebacteria | Prokarote, lives in extreme environments where most other organisms couldn't survive, "ancient"ex. Yellowsone Nationsl Parks hotsprings |
| Eubacteria | microscopic organisms that live in soil and inside the human body, ex. E-coli, turns milk into yogurt |
| Protista | Eukarotes that are single celled or simple multi-celled organisms, not plants or animals, ex. protozoa, algae, paramecium, Euglena |
| Fungi | complex, multicellular like plants, but don't produce their own food, obtain nutrients from other sources, ex. mold, mushrooms |
| Plantae | complex, multicellular organisms that produce their own food through photsynthesis, ex. sequoias |
| Animalia | complex, multicellular organisms that can move from place to place and have a nervous system, ex. eagle, human |
| Prokarote | no nuclei "before nucleus" no organells, ex. Archeabacteria, Eubacteria |
| Eukarote | "true nucleus" organells-may be multi or uni-cellular, ex. fungi, protista, plant, animal, monera |
| Scientific name (2 classification levels) | genus, species, ex. Homo sapien-underlined |
| Basis of Aristoltle's classification system | plants and animals |
| Animal Kingdom | divide into Protista because of the invention of the microscope finding Euglena to have some plant and some animal traits |
| species | the most specific of the seven levels of classifications, characterized by a group of organisms that can mate with one another and produce fertile offspring |
| canis lupus -corrected | Canis lupus-underlined |
| How can you tell 2 animals belong to the same species? | they can mate and produce fertile offspring |
| 3 rules for dichotomous key | 1. always start with 1a, 2. yes: follow directions-no go to B, 3. always A before B |
| taxonomist | a person who studies the science of identifying,classifying and naming living things |
| language of scientific name | Latin and Greek |
| scientific name for human | Homo sapien-underlined |
| kingdom of only unicellular organisms | Bacteria |
| Kingdom of multicellular organisms | Animal, fungi and plant |
| Kingdoms with both multi and uni-cellular organisms | Protista |
