Curriculum Expectations
B2.1
Use appropriate terminology related to biodiversity.
B2.4 Create and apply a dichotomous key to identify and classify organisms from each of the kingdoms. B3.1 Explain the fundamental principles of taxonomy and phylogeny by defining concepts of taxonomic rank and relationship, such as genus, species, and taxon. B3.3 Describe unifying and distinguishing anatomical and physiological characteristics of representative organisms from each of the kingdoms. Slide4
Learning goals
Using only physical characteristics, create a taxonomic scheme to classify a group of generic organisms
.
Describe the history of taxonomy and why we came to use the Linnaean system.Describe the principles of taxonomy and be able to describe the various taxonomical levels.
Compare
and contrast the physical and metabolic characteristics of several organisms and create a dichotomous key/
cladogram
with this information
.Slide5
Classifying Aliens
Once you are given your handout, work with your group to come up with a way to classify the aliens!
Discuss the questions provided for you when you finish!Slide6

What is biological Classification?
The systematic grouping of organisms into biological categories based on metabolism, and physical and evolutionary relationships.

How do we classify organisms?
Aristotle was the first to give detailed classification of living things.
He made no effort to classify plants or fungi.
His ideas were based on the scala natura (Natural Ladder).Animals were classified as being “sky-dwelling”, “water-dwelling”, or “land dwelling”.Slide9
How do we classify organisms?
The father of modern taxonomy is
Carulos
Linnaeus.Had the idea to distinguish nomenclature from description.Replaced long, traditional names with a simple two-name system (binomial nomenclature). These were later grouped into hierarchies such as class, order, and so on.There have been slight modifications but this system is still used in modern taxonomy. Slide10

cladogram
!Slide14
Classifying you!
Create a dichotomous key for all the members of your group!
Start with the most general characteristics that you all share
, and then begin to separate based off of your different characteristics, until each of you are a single species.Come up with a Genus and Species name for the species that is you (i.e Camreus yakeley, Hayesean
