DIVERSITY OF LIVING ORGANISMS

Sorting things out • Classification is putting things into orderly groups based on similar characteristics. • For thousands of years, humans have classified living things based on usefulness. • Scientists classify living and extinct organisms. • Biologists use a system to classify living things, this system groups organisms according to the characteristics they share.

How do scientists classify organisms? • Before the 1600s, many scientists divided organisms into two groups: plants and animals. • But, as more organisms were discovered, some organisms did not fit into either group. • In the 1700s, Carolus Linnaeus founded modern taxonomy. • Taxonomy is the science of describing, classifying, and naming living things. • Linnaeus tried to classify all living things based on their shape and structure. • He described a seven‐level system of classification, which is still in use today.

Classification today • Taxonomists use the seven‐level system to classify living things based on shared characteristics. • They also use shared characteristics to hypothesize how closely related living things are. • The more characteristics the organisms share, the more closely related the organisms may be.

9


Levels of Classification • Every living thing is classified into one of six kingdoms. • Kingdoms are the largest, most general groups. • All living things in a kingdom are sorted into several phyla (singular, phylum). • The members of one phylum are more like each other than they are like members of other phyla. • All living things in a phyla are further sorted in classes. • Each class includes one or more orders. Orders are separated into families. • Families are broken into genera (singular, genus). • And genera are sorted into species. • A species is a group of organisms that are closely related and can mate to produce fertile offspring.

Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Subphylum: Vertebrata Class: Mammalia Order: Carnivora Suborder: Feliformia Family: Felidae Subfamily: Felinae Genus: Felis Species: Felis silvestris

13


Scientific Names • Classifying organism allows scientists to give living organisms scientific names. • A scientific name is always the same for a specific kind of organism no matter how many common names there might be.

14


Scientific Names: Binomial • Linnaeus simplified the naming of living things by giving each species a two‐part scientific name. For example: Elephas maximus (asian elephant). • The first part of the name, Elephas, is the genus name. • The second part, maximus, is the species name. • No other species has both this genus name and this species name. • All genus names begin with a capital letter. All species names begin with a lowercase letter. Usually, both words, are underlined or italicized. • Scientific names, usually in latin or greek, contain information about an organism. Example: Tyranosaurus rex, Felis domesticus, etc.
