CHAPTER 18 - CLASSIFICATION
CLASSIFICATION & IDENTIFICATION Taxonomy- science of classification � 1. Classification-assigning organisms to a taxa based on similarities � 2. Nomenclature- rules of naming � 3. Identification- determining belonging Important for: � sense of relationships, past to present � enhance communication- Doctors & scientists � make predictions about similar organisms
CAROLUS LINNAEUS Species-similar organisms that can interbreed � Didn’t work well for asexual organisms- called strains � Linnaeus divided into plantae & animalia only Taxon- group or level of classification � Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species King Phillip Came Over For Good Spaghetti
The more of these that they have in common, the more closely related they are Ex: Ursus arctos (grizzly bear) Ursus maritimus (polar bear) Ailuropoda melanoleuca (Giant panda) Who is more closely related?
BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE- 2 PART NAMING use Genus & species � Latin names � Genus-noun, written first, capitalized � Species- adjective, lowercase � *both written in italics or underlined � Ex: Diplococcus pneumoniae or Homo sapiens
PROBLEMS WITH COMMON NAMES 1. 2. 3. They don’t tell how organisms are related Misleading Vary from place to place
PHYLOGENETIC TREES diagram that depicts the lines of evolutionary descent of different species, organisms, or genes from a common ancestor
EVOLUTIONARY CLASSIFICATION Based on: 1. Phylogeny- evolutionary history � Modern day vs fossil record 2. Developmental stages- egg, larva, etc. 3. Biochemistry- DNA 4. Behavior- mating rituals, breeding seasons, calls
SYNAPOMORPHY- A SHARED, DERIVED CHARACTER The more recently two species diverged from a common ancestor, the more synapomorphies they will share. Unique synapomorphies found only in a single group provide strong evidence for the common ancestry of members of that group.
THE SYNAPOMORPHIC ASTRAGALUS ANKLE BONES OF WHALES (CETACEANS) AND CLOVEN-HOOVED MAMMALS (ARTIODACTYLS) HELPED BIOLOGISTS DETERMINE THAT THESE TWO GROUPS SHARE A RELATIVELY RECENT COMMON ANCESTOR.
CLADOGRAMS Diagrams that shows the evolutionary relationships among groups of organisms Uses derived characters- characteristics that appear in recent parts of a lineage but not in its older members

18 -3 KINGDOMS & DOMAINS Robert Whittaker- 5 kingdom system � Plantae, Animalia, Fungi, Protista, Monera � Did not address viruses Today: 6 Kingdom System � Monera> Eubacteria & Archaebacteria
WOESE- 3 DOMAINS Determined by r. RNA sequencing 1. Archae- extreme bacteria 2. Bacteria- everyday bacteria 3. Eukarya- (Protista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia)
