1. Cell division can be divided into two stage….
a) nuclear division
b) cytoplasmic division
mitosis
meiosis
cytokinesis
2. The significance of mitosis
• The number of chromosomes present in
the nucleus of each cell is constant for the
the species concerned.
• The two daughter cells produced by
mitosis are genetically identical to each
other and two the parent cell.
6. INTERPHASE (G1)
• Synthesis of proteins & cytoplasmic
organelles (mitochondrion & chloroplast)
• High in metabolic rate.
• Chromosomes are not condensed &
appear as thread-like structure
(Chromatin)
7. INTERPHASE (S)
• Synthesis & replication of DNA
• Each duplicated chromosome are called
sister chromatids.
8. INTERPHASE (G2)
• The cell continues grow & remain the
active metabolic rate.
• The cell accumulates energy for mitosis
process.
16. PROPHASE
• Chromatin in the nucleus
begins to condense and
becomes visible in the
light microscope as
chromosomes.
• The nucleolus
disappears. Centrioles
begin moving to opposite
ends of the cell and fibers
extend from the
centromeres.
• Some fibers cross the cell
to form the mitotic
spindle.
1) Chromosome
- Condense
- Tightly coiled
- Shorter & thicker
- Visible under the light microscope
2) Spindle Fibres:
- Begin to form & extend
3) Centrioles:
- Migrates to opposite poles
- The chromatids are attached at centromeres.
4) The nucleolus disappears & nuclear
membrane disintegrates.
18. METAPHASE
• Proteins attach to the centromeres
creating the kinetochores.
Microtubules attach at the
kinetochores and the
chromosomes begin moving.
• Spindle fibers align the
chromosomes along the middle of
the cell nucleus. This line is
referred to as the metaphase plate.
This organization helps to ensure
that in the next phase, when the
chromosomes are separated, each
new nucleus will receive one copy
of each chromosome.
1) Chromosome
- Lined up on the metaphase plate.
2) Spindle Fibres:
- Fully formed.
3) Centrioles:
- At opposite poles.
- The chromatids are attached
at centromeres.
20. ANAPHASE
• The paired chromosomes
separate at the
kinetochores and move to
opposite sides of the cell.
Motion results from a
combination of
kinetochore movement
along the spindle
microtubules and through
the physical interaction of
polar microtubules.
1) Chromosome
- 2 sister chromatids separate at centromere
- Once separated, the chromatids are called
daughter chromosomes
2) Spindle Fibres:
- Become shorter and pull the sister chromatids
22. TELOPHASE
• Chromatids arrive at
opposite poles of cell,
and new membranes
form around the daughter
nuclei. The
chromosomes disperse
and are no longer visible
under the light
microscope. The spindle
fibers disperse, and
cytokinesis or the
partitioning of the cell
may also begin during
this stage
1) Chromosome
- 2 sets of chromosomes reach at opposite poles.
- Start to uncoil.
- Less visible under microscope.
2) Spindle Fibres:
- Disappears.
3) The nucleolus & nuclear membrane are reform.
39. CYTOKINESIS (ANIMAL CELL)
• By the formation of
CLEAVAGE
FURROW. A fiber
ring composed of a
protein called actin
around the center of
the cell contracts
pinching the cell into
two daughter cells,
each with one
nucleus.
40. CYTOKINESIS (PLANT CELL)
- By the formation
of CELL PLATE.
The rigid wall
synthesised
between the two
daughter cells and
grows outwards
until its edge.

2.Not Involve pollination
3.Good genetic material can
be passed to the off spring
Disadvantages
1.No genetic variation
2.Avoid natural selection
3.High risk mutation
4.Clones have same immunity
45. MEIOSIS
• All individuals of the same
species have the same
chromosomal number.
• In order for the offspring to
have the same
chromosomal number as
their parents, the cell must
undergo meiosis.
46. MEIOSIS
• Meiosis is the process of
nuclear division.
• It reduces the number of
chromosomes in new cell to
half the number of
chromosome in the parent
cell.
47. MEIOSIS
• Meiosis ensures that
the diploid number of
chromosomes is
maintained from one
generation to the
next.
49. Meiosis occur
ii. At testis
iii. At anther
i. At ovary
Importance of meiosis :
i. Produce ovum
ii. Produce sperm
iii. Produce pollen
Crossing over between
homologous chromosome

Organ testes ovaries anthers ovaries
52. MEIOSIS I : Prophase I
• The chromosomes begin to
condense.
• They become shorter, thicker and
clearly visible.
• The homologous chromosomes come
together to form bivalents through a
process called synapsis.
53.
54. MEIOSIS I : Prophase I
• Each bivalent is
visible under the
microscope as a four-
part structure called a
tetrad.
• A tetrad consists of
two homologous
chromosomes, each
made up of two sister
chromatids.
SYNAPSIS
TETRAD
55. MEIOSIS I : Prophase I
• Non- sister
chromatids exchange
segments of DNA in a
process known as
crossing over.
• The points at which
segments of
chromatids cross over
are called chiasmata
(plural)
CROSSING OVER
CHIASMA
56. MEIOSIS I : Prophase I
• Crossing over
results in a new
combination of
genes on a
chromosome.
New combination
of genes
57.
58. MEIOSIS I : Metaphase I
• The homologous chromosomes are lined
up side by side as tetrads on the
metaphase plate.
• The centromere does not divide.
59.
60. MEIOSIS I : Anaphase I
• The spindle fibres pull the homologous
chromosomes away from one another and
move them to the opposites poles of the
cell.
61.
62. MEIOSIS I : Telophase I
• The chromosomes arrive at the poles.
• Cytokinesis occurs .
• The spindle fibres disappear.
• The nuclear membrane reappears to
surround each set of chromosomes which is
haploid.
63.
64. MEIOSIS II : Prophase II
• The nuclear membranes of the daughter
cells disintegrate again.
• The spindle fibres re-form in each
daughter cell.
65.
66. MEIOSIS II : Metaphase II
• The chromosomes are lined up
randomly on the metaphase plate with
the sister chromatids of each
chromosome pointing towards the
opposite poles.
67.
68. MEIOSIS II : Anaphase II
• The centromere of the sister chromatids
finally separated.
• The sister chromatids of each
chromosome are now individual
chromosomes.
• The chromosomes move towards the
opposite poles of the cell.
69.
70. MEIOSIS II : Telophase II
• The nucleoli and nuclear membranes
re-form.
• Cytokinesis follows and formed four
haploid daughter cell.
• These haploid cells will develop into
gametes.

84. Definition
• Nutrition refers to the process by
which organisms obtain energy and
nutrients from food, for growth,
maintenance and repair of damaged
tissues.
• Nutrients are the substances
required for the nourishment of an
organism
86. Autotrophs
• This group of organism synthesize
complex organic compounds from raw,
simple inorganic substances
• They are able to make their own food,
either by photosynthesis or by
chemosynthesis.
87. Photosynthesis
• Photos : light
• Process through which green plants
produce organic molecules from carbon
dioxide and water using light as a source
of energy
• These green plants are called
photoautotroph.
88. Chemosynthesis
• Chemo : chemical
• Process by which certain types of bacteria
synthesize organic compounds using
energy obtain from oxidized inorganic
substances such as hydrogen sulphide and
ammonia
89. Heterotrophs
• Heteros : other
• Are organisms that cannot synthesise their own
nutrients
• This organism obtains energy through the intake
and digestion of organic substances, normally
plant and animal tissues.
• This type of nutrition is called heterotrophic
nutrition
• May practice holozoic nutrition, saprophytism or
parasitism
90. Holozoic nutrition
• Holo : like ; Zoon : animal
• Holozoic animals feed on solid organic
material which is then digested and
absorbed into their bodies.
• They can be split into
1. Herbivors – plant eaters
2. Carnivores – animal eaters
3. Omnivores – both plant and animal
eaters
91. Saprophytism
• Saprophytes feed on dead and decaying
organic matter.
• These organisms release digestive
enzymes to digest the food externally
before the nutrients are absorbed.
• Saprophytes are very important because
they act as the decomposers allowing
nutrients to be recycled.
92. Parasitism
• A parasite is an organism which obtains
food material from living body of another
organism, called the host.
• The parasite absorbs readily digested food
from its host.
• Examples of parasites include fleas and
lice, and the tapeworms (2) which infest
the human alimentary canal.
94. Factors that affect total calories
required by an individual
• Sex :
– Man need ………energy than women
because the metabolic rate in ………is higher
than ………….
• Body size :
– A big-sized person need ………energy than
small-sized person because the rate of heat
loss is higher in smaller-sized person.
95. • Physical activity/Occupation :
– A person who is very active and does heavy
work needs ……energy than a person who is
moderately active.
• Pregnancy and lactation:
– Pregnant women needs ………..energy to
support the growing foetuses.
– Breast-feeding mothers need …………..energy
to produce milk for their ……………….
96. • Surrounding temperature/Climate :
– People who lives in cold climate need ………energy
than people in hot climate because to maintain their
body ……………….
• Age :
– Growing children and teenagers need ………energy
than adult.
97. Daily energy requirement
• The energy content of a particular type of food
can be determined by burning as known mass
of the food in presence of oxygen in a bomb
calorimeter.
• The unit of energy value is
joule per gram (J g-1)
98. Calculation
The energy value is calculated using the following formula
Energy value = mass of water (g) x specific latent heat of water (J g-1 oC-1) x difference of temperature (oC)
mass of food (g)
• 4.2 joules of energy are needed to raise the temperature of 1 g of water
by 1oC
99. VITAMINS
2 groups:
(i) Water-soluble
- Cannot be stored in the body.
- Have to be supplied in daily diet.
(ii) Fat-soluble (ADEK)
- Can be stored in the body (in fat).
- Are dangerous if too much stored in the body.
100. Functions and Sources of Roughage
Roughage (dietary fibre) refers to the indigestible
fibrous material (cellulose) that are present in our diet.
Roughage is important in helping the process of
peristalsis.
Taking enough fibre and drinking sufficient water can
prevent constipation.
Good sources of fibre include fruits and vegetables,
cereals and wholegrain bread.
101. Functions of Water in the body
Function of water:
Medium for various chemical reactions
Component of blood, lubricants in our joints and
digestive juices.
Transporting agent – for digested food, excretory
products, hormones.
Regulates body temperature.
Solvent for inorganic salts and organic compounds.
102. MALNUTRITION
• Malnutrition is a result of dietary condition when a
person eats less, more or wrong proportions than
the body requires.

All these complex organic molecules are too large to
pass through plasma membranes and enter body
cells. Therefore, they have to be broken down into
simpler and soluble molecules that are small enough
to be absorb by the cells. This process is called
DIGESTION.

131. PHOTOSYNTHESIS
A brief history of the discovery of photosynthesis
Jean Baptisle Van
Helmount ( 1640)
The plant had grown mainly from the water
which was added regularly and not the soil
Joseph Priestly (1772) The green plants could restive oxygen
Jen Ingenhousz The importance of sunlight and chlorophyll
in photosynthesis
Jean Senebier (1780) Carbon Dioxide was taken by plants during
photosynthesis
Robert Mayer (1845) Plants convert solar energy into chemical
energy during photosynthesis
Robert Hill (1937) Chloroplasts produce oxygen by splitting
water molecules in the absence of carbon
dioxide
132. Plants require water (from
the soil) and carbon
dioxide (from the air) to
synthesis food in the
presence of light energy
They also concluded that
plants synthesis
carbohydrates (glucose)
and release oxygen during
photosynthesis.

of light (high density of
chloroplasts)
Allow easy diffusion of water
and carbon dioxide through the
leaf to the palisade cells.
136. Adaptation of plants from different habitats
to carry out photosynthesis
• Land Plants
- Have large numbers of stomata on the lower surface of the leaf which allow
maximum absorption of carbon dioxide.
- The chloroplasts are found in the palisade cells and spongy mesophyll cells
• Water Plants
- Chloroplasts are found in the leaves and stems.
Float plants - The stomata are mostly distributed on the upper
surface of the leaves.
Aquatic plants - Submerged generally do not have stomata.
• Desert Plants
- Reduce leaves with sunken stomata
137. The mechanism of Photosynthesis
• Two main stages
(i) The light reaction
- occurs in the presence of light, involve
photolysis of water.
(ii) The dark reaction
- happen both when there is light and
dark, take place in stroma.
138. • Chloroplasts contain membranous
structures which are piled up into stacks
called grana.
• Grana contain a light-trapping pigment
chlorophyll.
• Grana are embedded in a gel-like matrix
called stroma.

The factors affecting the rate of photosynthesis :
i. Light intensity
ii. Concentration of carbon dioxide
iii. Temperature

Light intensity
The effect of light intensity on
the rate of photosynthesis
144. ● Concentration of CO2 and temperature are
controlled at constant levels, the rate of
photosynthesis is directly proportional to light
intensity up to a certain point.
● The light intensity increases, the rate of
photosynthesis increases until it reaches
point P.
The effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis
145. ● Up to point P, the rate of photosynthesis is
limited by light intensity.
● Beyond point P, light intensity is no longer a
limiting factor.
● Along PQ, the rate of photosynthesis will not
increase even if light intensity is increased.
146. 30oC at high light intensity

photosynthesis
Carbon dioxide concentration
The effect of carbon dioxide concentration
on the rate of photosynthesis
147. Increase in the carbon dioxide concentration
will increase the rate of photosynthesis and
will constant at a certain point.
After a certain point when the concentration of
carbon dioxide increases, the rate of
photosynthesis will not increase because light
intensity acts as a limiting factor.
149. • The dark reaction of photosynthesis is catalysed by
enzymes and therefore changes in temperature will
affect the rate of photosynthesis.
• An increase of 10% in surrounding temperature will
double the rate of photosynthesis.
• Optimum temperature are between 25ْ C to 30ْ C.
• If the temperature is too high, the photosynthesis
enzymes are destroyed and photosynthesis process
stops.
150. The difference in the rate of photosynthesis in
plants throughout the day
• Rate of photosynthesis is high when light intensity and
temperature are high.
• Photosynthesis stops at night – no light.

7) Genetic engineering
It involves the transfer of beneficial genes from one organism to
another organism.
This technique enables the characteristics of an organism to be altered
by changing the genetic composition of the organism.
Genes from plants inserted DNA of animal cell and vise versa.
The genetically modified organism (GMO) is called transgenic organism.

171. AEROBIC RESPIRATION
• Requires oxygen gas
• In the cells, glucose molecules are oxidised
by oxygen.
• Chemical equation?
• Large amount of energy is produced (38 ATP)
• Waste products are water and carbon dioxide

kJ
172. ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION
• Does not requires oxygen gas
• In the cells, glucose molecules are oxidised
without oxygen.
• Less amount of energy is produced (2 ATP)
174. • During vigorous activities, the blood cannot
supply enough oxygen to all tissues.
• The muscles are in state of oxygen deficiency
(oxygen debt)
• The muscles get an extra energy from
anaerobic respiration.

• Much of the energy is still trapped in lactic
acid molecules.
• The high level of lactic acid may cause
muscular cramps and fatigue.
• Fast and deep breathing can oxidised the
lactic acid to carbon dioxide and water.
• Oxidation of lactic acid occurs in the liver.
177. In yeast
• Chemical equation?
• This process is called Fermentation.
• Catalysed by the enzyme Zymase
• Waste products are ethanol and carbon

182. THE PROCESS OF GASEOUS EXCHANGE
ACROSS THE SURFACE OF THE ALVEOLUS
AND THE BLOOD CELLS
• Diffusion of a gas depends on
differences in partial pressure between
the two regions.
• The greater the gradient of concentration
across the respiratory surface, the
greater the rate of diffusion
183. • The partial pressure of oxygen in the air
of the alveoli is higher compared to the
partial pressure of oxygen in the blood
capillaries.
• Therefore, oxygen diffuses across the
surface of the alveolus and blood
capillaries into the blood.
184. • The partial pressure of the carbon
dioxide is lower in the alveoli compared
to that of the blood capillaries.
• Carbon dioxide diffuses out of the blood
capillaries into the alveoli and is expelled
through the nose or mouth into the
atmosphere.

190. In the capillaries, the partial pressure of
oxygen in the blood is higher than the
partial pressure of oxygen in the cells.
Oxyhaemoglobin breaks down and release
oxygen to be used for cellular respiration.
Cellular respiration depletes the oxygen
content in the cells.
191. Cellular respiration produces carbon dioxide
(partial pressure of carbon dioxide is higher in
the cells than the partial pressure of carbon
dioxide in the capillaries)
Carbon dioxide diffuses out of the cells into the
tissue capillaries before being transported
back to the lungs

203. • Lenticels are raised pores found on the stems and
roots. The cells around the lenticels are arranged loosely
to allow the diffusion of gases into and out of the plant
tissues
• Stomata connect the air spaces inside a leaf with the
atmosphere. The air spaces in the leaves are connected
to those of the stems and roots.
• Oxygen from the atmosphere diffuses quickly into the
air spaces and then into the mesophyll cells.
• During aerobic respiration, oxygen concentration in the
cells is lower than concentration of oxygen in the air
spaces
• The differences in concentration gradient allows oxygen
into diffuse continuously from the air spaces into the
atmosphere.
204. Energy requirement in plants
During cellular respiration – plant cells take in
oxygen and produce carbon dioxide.
Plants cannot photosynthesis in darkness,
respiration still occurs because plants need
energy continuously to sustain their living
processes.
The energy requirement for living processes in
plants is much lower than animals because plants
do not move.
205. The intake of oxygen by plants
for respiration
• Do you know that plants also undergo
respiration process?
• Most plants take in oxygen through leaves,
stems and roots.
• Gaseous exchange between plant cells
and the environment occurs by diffusion,
mainly through stomata and lenticels.
206. Continue…
• Each stomata consists of a pore
surrounded by two guard cells.
• The guards cells contain the chloroplast in
which photosynthesis takes places.
• The stomata of most plants open when
there is light and they close in the dark.
(Figure: refer text book 167)
207. Aerobic and anaerobic respiration in plants
• Aerobic respiration
usually carried out by plants in the present of
oxygen
• Anaerobic respiration
during flooding,
the initial stages of germination
when the embryo is completely enclosed within
an airtight seed coat
208. Respiration and photosynthesis
• Dependent on each other.
• The compensation point is at which the
rate of carbon dioxide production during
respiration is equal to that of carbon
dioxide consumption during
photosynthesis at certain light intensity.
• (Figure 7.17:refer text book pg.168)
209. • As light intensity increase, the rate of
photosynthesis becomes faster than the
rate of respiration
• So the plant need for a higher carbon
dioxide meanwhile the plant release
excess oxygen into atmosphere
210. • For growth, reproduction and seed
production to be possible in plants, the
rate of photosynthesis must exceed the
rate of respiration
• This enables the rate of sugar production
to exceed the rate of sugar consumption
• So the excess sugar can be used for
growth and other vital living processes in
plants

INTERACTION
symbiosis
227. Commensalism
• the commensal benefits
• the host neither derives any
benefit nor is harmed.
• Example :
– Epiphytes such as pigeon
orchids grow on trees.
– Epizoit such as remora fish and
shark.
Epiphytes
Epizoit
228. Mutualism
Relationship between two species of
organisms in which both benefit.
Example:
Lichen (alga produces food for itself and also
for fungus. The fungus supplies carbon
dioxide and nitrogenous product for the alga to
produce its food)
229. Parasitism
• Relationship between two organisms in
which one organism (the parasite) benefits
and the other (the host) is harmed.
• Example:
– Ectoparasites (ticks and fleas)
– Endoparasites (tapeworms)
230. Prey-predator
• Relationship where organisms
which is smaller called the prey,
is hunted and eaten by the
stronger animal (the predator).
• Example:
– A deer eaten by a lion.
231. Saprophytism
• The type of interaction in which living
organisms obtain food from dead and
decaying matter.
• Example:
–Saprophytic bacteria and fungi. (Mucor
sp.)
232. The interaction between biotic
components in relation to competition
• Competition is an interaction between
organisms livings together in a habitat
and competing for the same resources
that are in limited supply.
237. AN ECOSYSTEM :
Is a community of organisms which interact with
their non-living environment and function as a unit.
It is a dynamic system where the biotic
components are well balanced with one another and
with the biotic components.
Ecosystems vary in size.
238.
239. :
A HABITAT:
Is a natural environment where organisms
live.
Provides an organisms with the basic resources
of life such as –food
- shelter
- living space
- nesting sites
- mates
Example: The natural habitat of a mudskipper
is the mud in mangrove swamps.
240. A SPECIES :
Is a group of organisms that look alike
and have similar characteristics, share the
same roles in an ecosystem and are
capable of interbreeding to produce
fertilize offspring.
241. A POPULATION :
Is a group of organisms of the same
species living in the
same time .
Example: A population of elephants living in
the jungle.
242. A COMMUNITY:
Several populations of different
species living in the same habitat in an
ecosystem.
The members of the community are
interdependent and interact with one
another in order to survive.
A change in any of the populations
will affect the distribution of other
populations.
243. A NICHE :
The niche of a population includes
- the range of temperatures at which it
lives.
-the type of food it eats
-and the space it occupies
Two species cannot share the same ecological
niche.
Individuals of the same species may have
different niches.
244. Animals that undergo metamorphosis in their life
cycle occupy different niches.
Example: A tadpole lives entirely in water and
uses different resources while an adult
frog lives mainly on the land.
249. THE PIONEER SPECIES (The first colonisers)
The adaptive characteristic:
- they have special adaptations that enable to survive on dry
and nutrient-poor soil.
- they have dense root systems to bind the sand particles and
hold water and humus.
- they have a short life cycle.
When the pioneer species die, they add the humus content of
the soil.
Hence, the pioneer species modify the environment, eventually
creating conditions which are less favourable to themselves.
They establish conditions that are more conducive to other
species which are called successor species.
252. SUCCESSION:
The process which pioneer changes its environment so that it is
replaced by another community.
Succession is a very slow and continuous process which occurs
in stages.
Ecological succession leads to a relatively stable community
which is in equilibrium with its environment. This is called a
climax community (The tropical rainforest)
A climax community is a stable community that undergoes little
or no change in its species composition.
253. THE SUCCESSOR SPECIES:
The adaptive characteristics:
-these plants grow bigger than the pioneer species, thus
reducing the amount of sunlight that reaches them and
gradually replacing them.
-most of these plants have small wind-dispersable seeds
which are able to spread and grow rapidly.
The changes in habitat that caused by successor:
-they change the structure and quality of the soil, making it
more conducive for larger plants to grow.
-these plants then become the new dominant species.
260. -The species that inhabit seaward zone include Avicennia sp. and
Sonneratia sp. (The pioneer species)
-The middle zone is inhabited by Rhizophora sp.
-The inland zone is less frequently covered by sea water. This is
where Bruguiera sp. grows.
AS RhiB
262. THE COLONISATION & SUSSESSION
OF MANGROVE SWAMPS:
1. Avicennia sp. and Sonneratia sp
Adaptation:
-have long underground cable roots that support them in
the soft and muddy soil.
-protect them from strong coastal winds.
-produce vertical breathing roots called Pneumatophores
(REFER your text book PAGE 184)
263.
264. 2. Rhizophora sp.
Adaptation:
-have prop roots that not only anchor the plants to the mud
but also for aeration. (text book page 184)
-the leaves have thick cuticles that help them reduce
transpiration.
-the root cells have a higher osmotic pressure than the
surrounding salt water. Thus, the cell sap of the roots does not
lose water by osmosis.
-instead, salt water that enter the root cells is excreted through
hydathodes.
-the seeds are able to germinate while still being attached to the
parent tree. This phenomenon is called vivipary.
267. 3. Rhizophora sp.
-Rhizophora sp. replaces the pioneer species.
-The arching roots of Rhizophora sp. trap slit and mud, creating
firmer soil structure over time.
-The ground become higher and the soil becomes drier.
-The condition now becomes more suitable for other species of
mangroves such as Bruguiera sp. which replaces Rhizophora sp.
268. 4. Bruguiera sp
-The buttress roots of Bruguiera sp. form loops which protrude
from the soil to trap more silt and mud.
-This modifies the soil structure gradually.
-Over time, terrestrial plants such as Nypa fruticants and
Pandanus sp. begin to replace Bruguiera sp.
-The transition from a mangrove swamp to a terrestrial forest and
eventually to a tropical rainforest which is a climax community
takes a long time.
269. Sampling technique to study the
population size of organism
1. Quadrat sampling technique used in
estimating the size of plants population and
immobile animals.
2. The capture, mark, release and recapture
technique used to estimate the population of
mobile animals such as small mammals,
butterflies and bird.

• In the effort to estimate the population of rats
in a paddy field, a farmer set up some traps
and managed to capture 22 rats. The farmer
tagged the rats by putting a small metal ring
on the rats’ feet and then released them.
After 2 days, the farmer set up the trap again
and this time he managed to trap 20 rats.
Among the trapped rats, 16 of them were
found without the ring. What is the estimated
population of the rats in the paddy field?
281. Classification of organisms
• Taxonomy is a branch of Biology concerned
with identifying, describing and naming
organisms.
• It is a systematic method of classifying plants
and animals based on the similarities in their
characteristics.
• FIVE MAJOR KINGDOMS
–Monera - Protista

–Animalia
282. MONERA
• Unicellular organisms, have cell walls but lack of both
membrane-bound nuclei and organelles.
• Example : Bacteria dan cynobakteria.
• Unicellular and multicellular organisms
