Kingdoms, Dichotomous Keys, Diversity, & Resilience

Homework Review pp. 8 -23 in your textbook and answer 1. 1 even questions 1. 2, questions 1, 3, 5 Define: unicellular & multicellular prokaryotic & eukaryotic autotrophic & heterotrophic sexual & asexual Species Concepts?

Definitions Unicellular: single-celled Multicellular: more than one cell Prokaryote: smaller, simpler type of cell without a membrane-bound nucleus Eukaryote: larger, more complex type of cell with a membrane-bound nucleus Autotroph: obtains energy by making its own food (sunlight) Heterotroph: consumes other organisms to obtain energy and nutrients Sexual reproduction: requires the genetic material from two parents to form offspring with a unique combination of genes (unique to the Domain, Eukarya) Asexual reproduction: offspring arise from a single parent, and inherit the genes of that parent only. The offspring will be exact genetic copies of the parent (eg. in Eukarya include some reptiles, insects, and fish).

Eukaryotic cells • Us! • Membranebound nucleus • much larger and more complex than prokaryotic cells Examples? Organisms we can see

Prokaryotic cells • Do not have a nucleus. Genetic material is found in the cytoplasm • Smaller, and less complex than eukaryotic cells • There at least 20 times more prokaryotic cells on Earth than there are eukaryotic cells

Features common to all cells

Kingdoms (refer to text p. 29, table 1. 5)

DKPCOFGS: We need a mnemonic! Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species

Dichotomous Keys An identification solution that uses many 2 -part choices to narrow down the solution We did this! With our shoes! (eg. leather and not leather) Another activity… meet the Norns! …for more practice and information, look at text pp. 40 -1

Criteria depends on Taxonomic rank (refer to p. 29, Table 1. 5 vs p. 30, #9) If we’re interested in the Kingdom what types of criteria are we looking at? If we’re interested in the Species rank, what types of criteria are we looking at?

DIVERSITY!

Ecosystem Diversity

Diversity! Ecosystem Diversity: The variety of ecosystems in the biosphere (landscapes) Ecosystem Services: Can you think of any examples? For a grassland? A ravine? Wetlands? Temperate forests? Tropical rainforests? Is it important to preserve ecosystem diversity? Why?

Diversity! Species Diversity: The variety and abundance of species in a given area (community) -What are some examples of species diversity? -How might species diversity at the level of primary production (plants) affect other trophic levels in food chains?

Species Diversity

Species Diversity

Species Diversity

Species Diversity

Diversity! Genetic Diversity: The variety of genes in a population of interbreeding individuals -Why is genetic diversity important? -What would happen if a population lacked genetic diversity?

Genetic Diversity (Homo sapiens)

Resilience! Biodiversity is the most important factor in ensuring resilience at the ecosystem (landscape), species (communities), and genetic (population) scales • What is resilience? Resilience is the ability of an ecosystem to maintain a balance in the face of outside disturbances • What are some examples of threats to resilience? Loss of resilience = more brittle populations, communities, and ecosystems • How does this relate to Endangered Species?

ENDANGERED SPECIES PROFILE #1 Polar bear (Ursus maritimus)

IMPORTANCE of the POLAR BEAR Polar bears are at the top of the food chain and have an important role in the overall health of the marine environment. Over thousands of years, polar bears have also been an important part of the cultures and economies of Arctic peoples. Polar bears depend on sea ice for their existence and are directly impacted by climate change—serving as important indicator species. http: //worldwildlife. org/species/polar-bear
