Biology 18.1
The document discusses taxonomy and the hierarchical system used to classify organisms. It defines key terms like taxon, binomial nomenclature, genus, family, order, class, phylum and kingdom. Each level groups organisms in an increasingly broad manner, with kingdom being the largest group. Species are assigned a two-part scientific name under the system of binomial nomenclature. Linnaeus established the seven-level hierarchical classification system still used today.
animals
Classification is the process of organizing living things into groups based on similarities to make them easier to study. Aristotle created the first classification system dividing animals into those that fly, swim, or walk/crawl/run. Linnaeus developed binomial nomenclature, giving each organism a two-part scientific name comprising its genus and species to precisely classify it. There are 7 levels of classification from broadest kingdom to most specific species, and evolution causes species to gradually change over time, influencing their classification.
Taxonomic order
Classification helps organize the diversity of organisms by determining their relationships and possible origins. There are eight main taxonomic groups used in classification: Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. Humans are classified as the species Homo sapiens within the genus Homo. The Linnaean system of classification groups organisms into these taxonomic groups based on similarities.
exam
The document contains multiple choice questions about biological classification. It covers the following key points:
- The highest classification category is kingdom.
- Prokaryotic organisms make up the domains of archaebacteria and eubacteria.
- A group of related genera comprise the classification level of family.
- Soft-bodied multicellular organisms found in decomposing leaves are members of the kingdom Protista.
- The binomial nomenclature uses the classification levels of genus and species.
Diversity of living world 2
The document discusses the three domains of life - Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya. Archaea are prokaryotic cells with ether-linked membranes that often live in extreme environments. Bacteria are also prokaryotic but have ester-linked membranes and peptidoglycan cell walls. Eukarya have eukaryotic cells, ester-linked membranes, and no universal cell wall. The Eukarya domain includes four kingdoms: Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. The document then explains taxonomic hierarchy from the highest level of kingdom down to the most specific level of species.

This ppt includes the basics of the diversity of the living world. The binomial nomenclature system, stages of taxonomy, and systematics are included in it.
Biodiversity
The document summarizes the modern system of biological classification. It describes the hierarchical Linnaean system consisting of taxa from domain to species. It notes that Carolus Linnaeus introduced binomial nomenclature and an early two-kingdom system in 1758. However, the modern five-kingdom system was proposed by R.H. Whittaker in 1969 and incorporates additional taxonomic ranks between kingdom and species.
Chpt. 17.1-History of Classification
Aristotle first classified organisms as either animals or plants, with plants grouped by size and animals by whether they had blood. Linnaeus broadened Aristotle's system and created the first formal taxonomy, grouping organisms into a binominal nomenclature with a genus and species name. The taxonomic categories from most specific to broad are species, genus, family, order, class, phylum, kingdom, and domain.

Methods of plant taxonomy are outlined including morphology, floristics, herbaria, and botanical gardens. The importance of field observation and a region's flora are also noted.
TAXONOMICAL CATEGORIES
This document discusses taxonomy, systematics, and taxonomic categories. It defines taxonomy as the classification of organisms based on observable characteristics into hierarchical taxa. Systematics is the study of relationships between organisms. There are defined taxonomic categories including species, genus, family, order, class, division/phylum, and kingdom. Each category represents a rank in the taxonomic hierarchy and groups organisms with decreasingly similar characteristics as the category level increases. The categories are used to systematically classify all known organisms.
Taxonomy ppt
The document discusses the classification and taxonomy of organisms. It explains that taxonomy involves assigning scientific names to organisms and grouping them hierarchically based on biological similarities. The hierarchical system includes seven main taxa from broadest to most specific - kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. Scientific names use binomial nomenclature, consisting of the genus and specific epithet. Classification aims to reflect evolutionary relationships between organisms.
Why Do We Classify In Science
The first scientists to classify organisms were Lewis and Clark in the early 1800s as they described hundreds of plants and animals. Classification systems organize information about organisms into groups with consistent naming which facilitates communication among scientists and helps understand organisms' needs. The lowest classification level is species, with humans belonging to the Kingdom Animalia, Phylum Chordata, Class Mammalia, Order Primates, Family Hominidae, Genus Homo, and Species Homo Sapiens. The kingdom level has six main subgroups and the most important reason for classifying is that it allows for efficient communication in science.

This document discusses key concepts in taxonomy and systematics. It defines taxonomy as the classification of organisms and systematics as the scientific study of diversity and relationships among organisms. A taxon is a formally recognized group of organisms at any level of classification, while a category designates the rank or level within a hierarchical system, with examples including kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species.
Classification
The document discusses how scientists classify organisms. It explains that Carolus Linnaeus created the systematic classification system still used today, where organisms are classified into seven levels from kingdom to species based on their physical and structural similarities. The levels get more specific, with kingdom being the broadest and genus and species providing a unique name for each organism. Dichotomous keys using distinguishing characteristics help scientists identify unknown species.

Classification
This document discusses the classification of organisms and the evolution of taxonomy. It describes Aristotle's early classification system and how Linnaeus improved on it by developing a hierarchical system of classification from kingdom down to species. The Linnaean system is more accurate than Aristotle's because it is based on evolutionary relationships and morphology. Binomial nomenclature assigns every species a two-part scientific name. Modern taxonomy uses multiple lines of evidence, including fossils, morphology, embryology, and molecular comparisons to construct phylogenetic trees showing evolutionary relationships.
Classification Ms
Taxonomy is the science of classifying living things. Organisms are grouped based on similarities into a hierarchical system of categories ranging from broad Kingdoms to specific Species. The modern system has three Domains - Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya - reflecting evolutionary relationships determined by molecular analysis. Carolus Linnaeus developed the binomial nomenclature system still used today, assigning every species a two-part scientific name describing its Genus and differentiating species. Classification systems continue evolving to best represent the evolutionary history and relationships between all forms of life.
Classification notes
The document discusses the classification of living things from early systems developed by Aristotle and Linnaeus to the modern scientific system. It describes the levels of the modern classification system from domain to species and examples like the two types of cells and the three domains and four kingdoms. Key terms explained include taxonomy, binomial nomenclature, and characteristics used at different levels like phylum, class, order and family.
History of classification
Classification of living things is organized using taxonomy to group organisms according to their biological similarities. There are over 2.5 million known living things on Earth. Carolus Linnaeus developed the system of binomial nomenclature in the 1700s using the genus and species of each organism. This was an improvement over earlier classification systems as it used consistent Latin names to universally identify organisms rather than common names that varied between languages and regions. Modern taxonomy still uses Linnaeus' seven-level classification system moving from broadest to most specific of: kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species.
Intro to biodiversity and taxonomy
The document discusses biodiversity and taxonomy. It defines a species as a group of organisms that share genes and lineage, and are adapted to particular environmental resources. There are millions of species, many not yet identified. Taxonomy is the science of classifying species in a hierarchical system, from broad kingdoms to specific genera and species, to indicate natural relationships. This ordering system, developed by Linnaeus, helps organize the vast number of species and provides a standardized naming convention. The document also discusses how biodiversity supports ecosystem functions and is declining due to human-caused extinction rates being much higher than background rates.
Classification system
The document discusses the classification of living things. It explains that Carolus Linnaeus developed the system of binomial nomenclature over 200 years ago to scientifically name organisms. Each organism is given a two-word Latin name with the genus as the first word and the species as the second word, following specific rules. There are 7 levels of classification for organisms from broadest (kingdom) to most specific (species). The document provides examples and explanations of scientific naming and the levels of biological classification.
Levels of classification
This document provides information on biological classification systems. It discusses why classifying living things is important, provides a brief history of classification methods, and describes the current system of classification. The current system is based on 3 domains - Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya - which are further divided into kingdoms based on characteristics like cell structure, nutrition, and whether organisms are unicellular or multicellular. The 6 kingdoms are Bacteria, Archaea, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. Each kingdom has distinguishing features that are described.
Sandel classification
The document discusses the classification of organisms into kingdoms. It describes the six kingdom system used today: Archaebacteria, Eubacteria, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. Each kingdom is defined by characteristics such as whether its cells are prokaryotic or eukaryotic, whether its members are unicellular or multicellular, and how they obtain nutrition.
Biology 18.3
The document outlines the taxonomic classifications of domains and kingdoms. It introduces the three domains of Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. Bacteria contains the kingdom Eubacteria of unicellular prokaryotes with cell walls containing peptidoglycan. Archaea contains the kingdom Archaebacteria of unicellular prokaryotes lacking peptidoglycan in their cell walls. Eukarya contains the kingdoms of Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. The six kingdoms of life are Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.

The document discusses the three domain system and six kingdom system of classification. The three domains are Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. Bacteria and Archaea are prokaryotic and unicellular, while Eukarya includes protists, fungi, plants, and animals which are eukaryotic. The six kingdoms are further divided within these domains.
Chordates
The document discusses nonvertebrate chordates and fish. It states that tunicates and lancelets are the two groups of nonvertebrate chordates. It defines chordates as animals that have a nerve cord, notochord, pharyngeal pouches and a tail extending past the anus. The document also notes that fish are aquatic vertebrates that mostly have paired fins, scales and gills, and that the evolution of jaws and paired fins were important developments for fish. It discusses adaptations for aquatic life in fish and classifies all living fish into three groups: jawless fish, cartilaginous fish, and bony fish based on their internal structure.

3) The document also discusses famous experiments that helped establish theories of learning, like Ivan Pavlov's work with classical conditioning and B.F. Skinner's operant conditioning experiments using a "Skinner Box."
Diversity Of Mammals Monotremes
Monotremes are a special group of mammals that share characteristics with reptiles. They lay soft-shelled eggs and incubate them for 10 days like reptiles. Monotremes also have a cloaca, a single bodily opening, like reptiles. There are only two monotreme species - echidnas, which are spiny anteaters found in Australia and New Guinea, and have either short or long beaks, and platypuses, which are one of the few poisonous mammals and live in water hunting for food.
Diversity Of Mammals Placental Mammals
Placental mammals exchange nutrients and gases between the mother and embryo through the placenta. This includes humans and most other mammals. Mammals are divided into groups based on traits like number of toes and diet. Carnivores like bears eat meat but can also consume plants. Cetaceans like whales are carnivorous marine mammals. Bats are the only mammals that can truly fly and feed on insects, fruit, and nectar. Rodents have sharp front teeth and eat plants and wood. Primates like lemurs have complex behaviors and brains unlike other animals. Proboscideans like elephants have trunks.
Primates And Human Origins
1) Fossil discoveries have shown that human-like creatures lived hundreds of thousands to millions of years ago, but the exact origins of humans is still unclear.
2) Early hominids such as Sahelanthropus tchadensis from 6.75 million years ago may have been human ancestors or more closely related to other apes.
3) Over millions of years, hominids became more upright, less dependent on trees, developed tools and art, and migrated from Africa to other parts of the world, including Neanderthals who lived in caves.
4) While theories abound, the exact reasons for hominid migrations and developments are unknown.
What Is An Animal 13 1
Animals are living things that cannot make their own food, digest food instead, and have many cells with nuclei to move around. They can be divided into vertebrates that have backbones and invertebrates without, with body structures arranged radially in a circle or bilaterally along a line.
Intro To Animals
The animal kingdom is extremely diverse, with some animals being microscopic while others are several meters long, living in various environments from inside other bodies to the open sea. Animals are multicellular eukaryotes that lack cell walls and carry out essential functions like feeding, respiration, circulation, excretion, response, movement, and reproduction to maintain homeostasis. The kingdom is divided into invertebrates, which lack backbones, and vertebrates, which have backbones.
Diversity Of Mammals Marsupials
Marsupials are mammals whose young develop in pouches. Examples include kangaroos, koalas, wombats, and Tasmanian devils. Kangaroos have strong tails and legs to jump long distances. Koalas mainly eat eucalyptus leaves and sleep 16-18 hours a day due to low metabolism. Wombats dig burrows with claws and teeth. Tasmanian devils are the largest carnivorous marsupials and get their name from loud fighting noises. While Australians may joke about dangerous "drop bears," these do not actually exist.
Reptiles Juju
Reptiles are vertebrates with scaly skin, lungs, and terrestrial eggs that allow them to live fully on land. They evolved from amphibian ancestors and came to dominate during the Triassic period, though most dinosaurs went extinct at the end of the Cretaceous period due to volcanic eruptions and an asteroid impact. Modern reptiles include snakes, lizards, crocodilians, turtles, and the tuatara; they regulate their body temperature through environmental interactions, have two-chambered hearts, and reproduce through internal fertilization or ovoviviparity. Many reptile species are endangered due to habitat destruction and overhunting.
Birds
Birds are feathered, winged animals that evolved from extinct reptiles. They have several adaptations for flight including lightweight bones, strong chest muscles and aerodynamic feathers. Birds maintain a constant high internal temperature through high metabolisms and efficient respiratory, circulatory and digestive systems. Their feeding process involves using a muscular gizzard to break down food and a crop to store and moisten it.
Reptiles Life Science 15 4
Reptiles first appeared nearly 280 million years ago and include turtles, crocodiles, and lizards and snakes. They have dry scaly skin, lay amniotic eggs with membranes to protect embryos, and show little maternal care once eggs are laid. Modern reptiles descended from early reptiles and vary widely in size, shape, color, habitat, diet, and behavior.
14 3 Arthropods
The document provides information about various arthropod classes including Crustacea (crabs and lobsters), Myriapoda (millipedes and centipedes), extinct Trilobita class, Chelicerata class including horseshoe crabs and arachnids such as spiders. It describes their physical characteristics, habitats, behaviors, life cycles and feeding habits.
Reptiles 31
Reptiles evolved from amphibian-like ancestors and have diversified into many forms like turtles, snakes, and dinosaurs. Reptiles have lungs and lay shelled, amniotic eggs to protect embryos from drying out. The four surviving groups of reptiles are lizards and snakes, crocodilians, turtles and tortoises, and tuatara. Birds are reptile-like animals that maintain a constant internal temperature through generating their own body heat from metabolism, unlike reptiles which rely on external heat sources.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Revolutionizing Application Development
with AI-powered low-code, presentation by George Aspiotis, Sr. Partner Development Manager, Microsoft
Artificial Intelligence for XMLDevelopment
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
