How to use a dichotomous key (2) (5)
This document provides instructions on how to use a dichotomous key to identify eight species of Norns, which are divided based on physical characteristics such as ear shape, tail presence, waving behavior, and hair. The key guides the user through a series of two-choice decisions to determine the correct scientific name of each Norn species.
Dichotomous key
The document describes characteristics of microbes and how to create a dichotomous key to identify bacteria. It includes a table listing characteristics of 8 bacteria species. It then shows the dichotomous key developed from the table to identify the bacteria through a series of yes/no questions. The key begins by separating bacteria based on Gram stain, then asks about galactose fermentation, H2S production, and reaction in litmus milk to systematically identify the bacteria.
Classification and Keys
The document provides an overview of classification and taxonomy learning objectives, including:
1) Defining the binomial system of naming species and classifying organisms.
2) Describing the five main classes of organisms and their key features.
3) Using dichotomous keys to classify organisms based on observable features.
Taxonomy
The document discusses taxonomy, which is the study of naming, describing, and classifying organisms. It provides details on classification systems and how they have evolved over time from early naturalists like Aristotle to the modern hierarchical system. Key modern concepts covered include binomial nomenclature, phylogenetic classification and the use of dichotomous keys to identify unknown organisms.
Classification of microrganisms
This document discusses the classification of microorganisms. It describes the three domain system proposed by Carl Woese which divides organisms into Archaea, Bacteria and Eukarya. It then provides details on the characteristics of fungi, algae, protozoa, viruses and bacteria; and discusses methods used to identify bacteria including biochemical tests and serological tests.
Hoofed mammals 1
This document provides an overview of hoofed mammals or ungulates and their digestive systems. It defines key terms like ungulates and ruminants. It describes how ruminants have a four-chambered stomach that allows bacteria to break down fibrous foods. The four chambers - reticulum, rumen, omasum, and abomasum - each play a role in digestion. The document also briefly discusses horns and antlers, noting key differences, and lists some common North American and Virginia ungulates.
Squirrels
There are two main groups of squirrels - ground squirrels that burrow and nest in the ground, and tree squirrels that nest in trees. Tree squirrels include eastern gray squirrels, fox squirrels, and red squirrels. They live in forested areas for protection from predators and store food for winter. Red squirrels are small with reddish fur and eat pine seeds and other foods. Chipmunks are solitary except during mating and store food in their cheeks for modified hibernation when they stay semi-awake.
Shop layout project
The document outlines requirements and considerations for designing a flower shop layout, including a work area with cooler and work stations, an area to receive and condition flowers, storage, and an office. The showroom needs a display cooler, shelving, a sales counter, and consultation area. When designing the work area, efficiency through work triangles and a training video should be considered. The service area must make merchandise visible and have good traffic flow. Alternatively, the layout can be designed using CAD home design software on a computer.

The document outlines requirements and considerations for designing a flower shop layout, including a work area with cooler and work stations, an area to receive and condition flowers, storage, and an office. The showroom needs a display cooler, shelving, a sales counter, and consultation area. When designing the work area, efficiency through work triangles and a training video should be considered. The service area must make merchandise visible and have good traffic flow. Alternatively, the layout can be designed using CAD home design software on a computer.
Asymmetrical triangle designs
The document describes different asymmetrical triangle flower arrangements including the L-shape right triangle and scalene triangle. The right triangle arrangement involves securing foam in a container above the rim and establishing the framework by marking the height and width, then softening the upright edge and concealing the foam before adding a focal point and filler flowers. The scalene triangle is similar but must be elevated with the lower side below level or have the upper side extend beyond center with the lower side level.
Human impact on wildlife habitat
Human activities like construction, agriculture, mining and development have significantly reduced wildlife habitats by fragmenting large tracts of land into small, isolated pieces. This fragmentation creates population problems for wildlife by preventing migration and reducing genetic diversity. Wetlands, forests and farmland - which can provide excellent habitat if managed properly - have also been degraded or destroyed. However, certain habitat alterations like leaving field corners unplowed can benefit wildlife by providing food and cover. Overall, human encroachment has placed great pressure on wildlife populations by destroying and fragmenting the lands they depend upon.
History of conservation
The document summarizes the history of wildlife conservation in the United States from the 1600s to present day. It outlines key events like the establishment of Yellowstone National Park in 1872 as the first national park, and the passage of laws like the Lacey Act of 1900, Migratory Bird Acts of the 1920s-30s, and Endangered Species Act of 1973 to regulate wildlife protection. It also profiles important historical figures in the conservation movement such as Theodore Roosevelt, John Muir, Aldo Leopold, and Jay Darling.
Forest succession
1. Forest succession is the gradual replacement of one community of plants by another, usually driven by differences in shade tolerance. Pioneer species that colonize first are shade-intolerant, while climax species that eventually remain are most shade tolerant.
2. In an eastern deciduous forest, pioneer species like black locust and loblolly pine establish first following clearing before being replaced by oak trees with intermediate tolerance and later more tolerant maple and beech.
3. Forest succession can be influenced by disturbances like clearing or fire that allow pioneers to grow, while lack of disturbance allows climax species suited to the location to persist indefinitely.
Asters
The document discusses various types of flowers that are commonly used in floral arrangements, including mums, daisies, sunflowers, goldenrod, asters, and gerberas. It provides details on their availability, colors, characteristics, longevity, and pricing to allow florists to effectively incorporate them into their designs. The flowers vary in size from small filler flowers to large mass flowers and have properties like air-drying well or having long-lasting vase life that make them suitable for different floral applications.
Plant physiology
The three main processes in plant physiology are photosynthesis, respiration, and transpiration. Photosynthesis allows plants to produce their own food (carbohydrates) from carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight using chlorophyll in their leaves. Respiration breaks down carbohydrates to release energy, which is used for growth and tissue building. Transpiration is the process by which plants lose water, primarily through their leaves, which serves purposes like mineral transport and cooling the plant.

Nightjars, swallows & swifts
Nightjars are nocturnal ground-nesting birds that eat insects while flying, most active at dawn and dusk. Swallows can be identified by their split tail and eat insects in flight, with tree swallows nesting in trees and barn swallows making mud nests. Martins include the purple martin that nests exclusively in birdhouses and is migratory, returning each year to the same nest. Swifts are fast fliers without a forked tail, migratory and crepuscular, building nests with saliva in colonies in buildings and chimneys.
Large rodents
The document describes several large rodent species, including marmots that hibernate in winter and eat plants, groundhogs that can climb trees and are considered pests, beavers that are semi-aquatic and build dams and lodges out of sticks, and nutria that were introduced for fur farms but now damage marshes by eating water plants.
Gnawing mammals
Rodents are a type of gnawing mammal that have 4 large incisor teeth which continuously grow and must be worn down through gnawing. They are herbivores with an r-selected reproduction strategy of having numerous offspring with low parental care that reproduce early and have short lifespans, keeping their populations below environmental carrying capacities.
