TRANSCRIPT
CHARACTERISTICS OF LIVING ORGANISMS
1. Living Things are Composed of Cells Cell theory
2. Living Things Have Different Levels of OrganizationCell – tissue – organ- organ system
3. Living Things Use Energy Living things take in energy and use it for maintenance and growth.
4. Living Things Respond To Their Environment Living things will make changes in response to a stimulus
in their environment. A behavior is a complex set of responses.

CHARACTERISTICS OF LIVING ORGANISMS
5. Living Things GrowCell division - the orderly formation of new cells. Cell enlargement - the increase in size of a cell. Cells grow to a certain size and then divide. An organism gets larger as the number of its cells increases.
6. Living Things Reproduce
Reproduction is not essential for the survival of individual organisms, but must occur for a species to survive.
7. Living Things Adapt To Their Environment
Adaptations are traits giving an organism an advantage in a certain environment. Variation of individuals is important for a healthy species.

CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Classification schemesLife is subdivided by this scheme:DomainKingdomPhylum (plural: phyla)ClassOrderFamilyGenus (plural: genera)Species
These may be remembered by the mnemonic “Dear King Phillip Came Over For Great Spaghetti”
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Classification schemesThere are three domainsDomain ArchaeaDomain BacteriaDomain Eukarya
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Classification schemesThere are six kingdoms within the domainsDomain ArcheaeKingdom Archaebacteria
Domain BacteriaKingdom Eubacteria
Domain EukaryaKingdom Animalia Kingdom PlantaeKingdom FungiKingdom Protista
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Classification schemesYou may encounter additional subdivisions created by
using prefixes ‘Super’ or ‘Sub’ at any classification levelOther subdivisions include ‘Division’, ‘Tribe’ and
‘Variety’
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Naming rulesNames of kingdoms, phyla, classes, orders, families
and genera are capitalizedNames of species are always in lower caseGenus and species are written with an underline or in
italicsExample: Homo sapiens sapiens or Homo sapiens sapiens (humans)
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Determining classification If you find an organism, you can use a key to determine
it’s classification If there are two choices at each branch, the key is
dichotomous (more than two choices at each branch gives a polychotomous key). Here are two types of keysSpider key (graphic)Numbered key (text)
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
A numbered key to identify oak trees
1a. Leaves usually without teeth or lobes: 21b. Leaves usually with teeth or lobes: 5
2a. Leaves evergreen: 32b. Leaves not evergreen: 4
3a. Mature plant a large tree — Southern live oak Quercus virginiana3b. Mature plant a small shrub — Dwarf live oak Quercus minima
4a. Leaf narrow, about 4-6 times as long as broad — Willow oak Quercus phellos4b. Leaf broad, about 2-3 times as long as broad — Shingle oak Quercus
imbricaria5a. Lobes or teeth bristle-tipped: 65b. Lobes or teeth rounded or blunt-pointed, no bristles: 7
6a. Leaves mostly with 3 lobes — Blackjack oak Quercus marilandica6b. Leaves mostly with 7-9 lobes — Northern red oak Quercus rubra
7a. Leaves with 5-9 deep lobes — White oak Quercus alba7b. Leaves with 21-27 shallow lobes — Swamp chestnut oak Quercus

CLASSWORK 1
1. Describe the two types of identification keys 2. List the three domains of life3. Describe (one sentence each) the seven
characteristics of living organisms4. What does “Dear King Phillip Came Over For
Great Spaghetti” remind us of?5. List the three domains and the kingdoms each
includes

CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Kingdom Archaebacteriaunicellular organisms lacking a nucleus and cell organelleshave independent evolutionary history and biochemistry than Eubacteriainclude five phylasometimes found in extreme environments (high temperature, high salt)may produce methane
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Kingdom ArchaebacteriaIn 1983, scientists tool samples from a spot deep in the Pacific Ocean where hot gases and molten rock boiled into the ocean form the Earth’s interior. To their surprise they discovered unicellular (one cell) organisms in the samples.

Classification of an extreme halophile Kingdom ArchaebacteriaPhylum EuryarchaeotaClass HalobacteriaOrder HalobacterialesFamily HalobacteriaceaeGenus HalobacteriumSpecies salinarum

CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Kingdom Eubacteria

CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Some Kingdom Eubacteria phylaPhylum Cyanobacteria - blue-green algae. Phylum Spirochaete: helically coiled cells. They also have flagella that allow them to move in a twisting motion. Phylum Proteobacteria: mostly anaerobic organisms. Most have flagella to move around, but some can move by gliding, which means they can move by themselves.

CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Classification of bacterium that produces Botox Kingdom EubacteriaPhylum FirmicutesClass ClostridiaOrder ClostridialesFamily ClostridiaceaeGenus ClostridiumSpecies botulinum
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Kingdom AnimaliaThe animals; have cells with nucleus but no cell wall or chloroplastsSome animals (vertebrates) have backbonesAll other animals (invertebrates) lack backbones
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Some phyla of kingdom Animalia Phylum Porifera – spongesPhylum Cnidaria – corals and jellyfishPhylum Annelida – segmented worms (earthworms and leeches)Phylum Nematoda – roundworms
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
More phyla of kingdom AnimaliaPhylum Arthropoda – insects, crabs, lobsters, shrimp, spiders, scorpions, centipedes, ticksPhylum Mollusca – oysters, clams, octopi, squidsPhylum Echinodermata – starfish, sea urchins, sea cucumbers
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
More phyla of kingdom AnimaliaPhylum Chordata – fish, sharks, rays, amphibians, reptiles, bird and mammals (all are vertebrates)

CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Kingdom Protista Includes amoebas, forams, most algae, and slime
moldsSome unicellular, others are colonial, and yet others
are multicellular all eukaryotes (they have a true nucleus). all need some kind of a water-based environment--
which can be fresh or marine water, snow, damp soil, polar bear hairs--in which to live
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Some Kingdom Protista phyla
Phylum Rhizopoda - amoebasPhylum Rhodophyta – red algae, multicellular and marine-dwelling, but are more typically found in tropical zones and deeper in the ocean (Nori)Phylum Apicomplexa – parasites that form tiny, infectious spores (Plasmodium)Phylum Zoomastigophora – free-living, symbionts and parasites (such as trypanosomes)

More Kingdom Protista phyla

CLASSIFICATION OF LIVING ORGANISMS
Viruses and prionsViruses cause diseases such as the common cold, influenza, herpes, chickenpox and AIDSPrions cause diseases as deer wasting disease, scrapie (sheep) and bovine spongiform encephalitis (mad cow disease)Viruses and prions can cause infectious disease but are not considered to be living organismsHowever, they still have classification
