who came up with the system of binomial nomenclature?
linnaeus
list the 7 taxa from most general to specific
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species
what two names are all organisms assigned?
genus and species

ex: humans are "homo sapiens"
what is the most common classification system today, that is based on DNA analysis?
the 3-domain system
-bacteria
-archaea
-eukarya
what are the classifications in the outdated 5-domain classification system?
-Monera
-Protista
-Fungi
-Plantae
-Animalia
**what are the notable changes between the 5-domain and more current 3 domain classifaction systems?**
the prokaryotic domain of "monera" is split into 'bacteria' and 'archaea' while protista, fungi, plantae, and animalia are grouped under 'eukarya'

resulting in a downsize from 5 to 3 domains
what do the domain bacteria and archaea have in common?
both prokaryotic -no internal membranes

both single-celled
which domain constitutes extremeophiles?
archaea (or.. formerly, monera)
do archaea and bacteria both have cell walls that contain peptidoglycan?
no, bacteria does contain it, archaea does not
do eukarya have peptidoglycan in cell wall?
no, only bacteria do
what is 'protista'
a kingdom under the eukarya domain
does the kingdom protista include heterotrophs or autotrophs?
both
are fungi heterotrophs or autotrophs?
heterotrophs! they are NONphotosynthetic
what two kingdom of eukarya contain heterotrophs? what contains autotroph? what contains both?
plantae = autotroph
protista = both
animalia = heterotroph
fungi = heterotroph
it is obvious what falls into the animal, plant and fungi kingdoms, but what falls into the protist kingdom?
single and primitive multicellular organisms that do not fit in the plant or fungi kingdom

Ex: seaweed, slimemold, amoeba, paramecium, and euglena.
how many phyla are in the animalia kingdom?
35
is the animalia kingdom monophyletic? what does that mean?
yes, it means all animal lineages can be traced back to one common ancestor
how do amoeba, paramecium and euglena move respectively?
amoeba = pseudopods
paramecium = cilia
eugelena = flagella
*how do cilia and flagella move?
microtubules
*how do pseudopods move?
microfilaments
are viruses considered living?
no, because they cannot function outside of a host cell
what is cyanobacteria?
blue-green algae classified under the 'bacteria' domain

contain photosynthetic pigments
can bacteria be photosynthetic?
YES

ex: cyanobacteria
what is the phlya porifera? what are some characteristics?
sponges:

-sessile
-have pores
-2 cell layers
-asexual and hermaphroditic reproduction
-no symmetry
what is the phyla cnidarian? what are some characteristics?
hydra and jellyfish:

-radial sym.
-asexual and sexual reproduction
-stinging cells! cnidocytes!
-gastrovascular cavity
-2 cell layers
what is the phyla platyhelminthes? characteristics?
flatworms:

- 3 full cell layers (ecto, endo & meso)
-no coelom
-only one opening (mouth/anus)
what is the simplest animal with bilateral sym?
flatworm (platyhelminthes)
what is the phlya nematoda?
roundworms

-have pseudocoelom
-often parasitic
what is the phyla annelida?
segmented worms:

-tube w/in a tube digestion
-closed circulatory system
-hermaphrodites
what is the phyla mollusca?
slugs, octopus, squid, clams, snails:

- have head-foot (sensory & motor organs)
-soft bodies but some secrete calcium carbonate shells
what is the phyla arthropoda?
insects, spiders, crustaceans (crabs, shrimp)

-jointed appendages
-segemented (head, thorax, ab)
-open circulatory system
what is the phyla echinodermata?
star fish, sea urchins
what is the phlya chordata?
fish, reptiles, birds, mammals
which phylum has a pseudocoelom?
nematoda
which phyla are deuterostomes?
echinodermata & chordata
which phylums only have 2 germ cell layers?
porifera and cnidaria
what are chordates characterized by?
notochord
what's a monetreme?
mammal that lays leathery eggs and has mammary glands with no nipples. ex: duckbilled platypus
what is the coelom?
fluid-filled body cavity, arrises from mesoderm
in protosomes, what does the blastopore become?
the mouth
in dueterosomes, what does the blastopore become?
the anus
what phyla have only 2 germ layers?
porifera and cnideria

(have ectoderm and endoderm and mesoglea)
which phyla are acoelmates? what does that mean?
no coelom

porifera, cnidaria, platyhelminthes
which phyla are psuedocoelomates?
nematoda

hydrostatic skeleton.
what are fungi cell wall made of?
chitin
