The document discusses biological diversity and variation within living things. It defines key terms like species, ecosystems, genetic variation, and niches. It explains that the two-name Latin classification system developed by Linnaeus enables scientists to refer to the same species using the same names. Examples are provided of variation within animal species, like coat color in foxes or shell color in snails. Sample multiple choice questions test understanding of topics like taxonomic classification and animal adaptations.
Biological classification involves grouping organisms based on shared characteristics and evolutionary relationships. Organisms are organized into a hierarchy of taxonomic ranks including domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. This system allows organisms to be accurately identified and studied based on their evolutionary relationships and physical similarities.
Scientific classification systems organize living things in a hierarchical structure from broad categories to specific levels. This allows scientists to efficiently communicate and compare organisms. Classification systems start with assigning every species a unique two-part scientific name that is universally understood. Organisms are then grouped into domains, kingdoms, phyla and other taxonomic ranks based on their evolutionary relationships and physical characteristics. This standardized naming and categorization helps scientists make sense of the diversity of life.

3. What is Biodiversity???
Biological diversity
It refers to the variety of
living things on Earth,
ranging from species to
populations in different
environments.
Also means the number, or
abundance of different
species living within a
particular region
4. Okay, So Why Is It Important?
Everything that lives in an ecosystem is part of the web
of life, including humans
Each species of vegetation and each creature has a place
on the earth and plays a vital role in the circle of life
Plant, animal, and insect species interact and depend
upon one another for what each offers, such as food,
shelter, oxygen, and soil enrichment
"It is reckless to suppose that biodiversity can be
diminished indefinitely without threatening humanity
itself." -Edward O. Wilson (Father of Biodiversity)
5. Early Classification
To study the diversity of life, biologists use a classification system to
name organisms and group them in a logical manner.
The field of Biology that deals with classifying organisms is called
Taxonomy.
Carolus von Linnaeus(Carl von Linne) is the father of Modern
Taxonomy (1707-1778)
He wrote Systema Naturae
•Linnaeus is considered the
founder of the binomial system of
nomenclature and the originator
of modern scientific classification
of plants and animals
8. Binomial Nomenclature
Identifying organisms by their genus and species’ names
2 words
First letter of FIRST word is capital, First letter of
SECOND word is lowercase.
The word needs to be in italic or underlined
Latin Form of the word.
Ex: Homo sapiens, Acer rubrum, Canus lupus
Humans, Red Maple, Wolf
9. Binomial Nomenclature
Used because the common name can sometimes be
misleading.
Common names can be different in various parts of the
world (for example the British, North American and
Australian “Robins”)
Latin is a universal “dead” language
10. How do Scientist
Classify organisms?
You will probably need to add this slide to your notes
Characteristics that appear in recent parts of a lineage but not in
its older members are called derived characters.
Derived Characters can be used to construct a Cladogram, a
diagram that shows the evolutionary relationship among a group
of organism
This concept was derived from Darwin.

11. How do Scientist
Classify organisms?
Early systems of classification grouped organisms
together bases on visible similarities.
That can quickly lead to troubles….
Biologist now group organisms into categories that
represent lines of evolutionary descent, or phylogeny,
not just physical similarities.
Characteristics that appear in recent parts of a lineage but
not in its older members are called derived characters.
This concept was derived from Darwin.
12. How do Scientist
Classify organisms?
Similarities at the DNA level in the genes of organisms
can be used to help determine classification.
Comparisons of DNA can also be used to mark the
passage of evolutionary time. A model known as a
molecular clock uses DNA comparisons to estimate the
length of time that two species have been evolving
independently.
13. A dichotomous key is a
series of yes/no questions
that state the rules for
placing items into
categories within a system
of classification
Ex: Plants, Insects, Trees,
People (We could make
one for our class!!)
15. 2 Kingdoms or 1?
Our book lists 6 kingdoms,
Eubacteria and Archaebacteria
Prior to 1990 most books listed
only 5 kingdoms, Eubacteria
and Archaebacteria were
grouped together Monera
Either is correct..(I still refer to
Monera on my quizzes and
test. )
16. The Three-Domain System
Molecular analyses have given rise to a new
taxonomic category that is now recognized
by many scientist.
The domain is more inclusive category than
any other—larger than a kingdom.
Bacteria, Archaea and Eukarya.
17. Eubacteria
Single Celled, Prokaryotic, Autotrophic
and Hetrotrophic
Most bacteria are in the EUBACTERIA
kingdom.
Cell walls with peptidoglycan.
Some produce vitamins and foods like
yogurt.
Ex: Streptococcus, Escherichia coli
Bacteria…ecological diverse
Free living soil organisms to deadly
parasites
Some need oxygen some do not need
oxygen.
18. Archaebacteria
Single Celled
Prokaryotic
Autotrophic and Heterotrophic
Cell walls do NOT contain
peptidogllycan
Ex: Methanogens, halophiles
These bacteria live in volcanic hot
springs, brine pools, and black organic
mud.
Most survive in the absence of oxygen
19. Protists
Mostly unicellular
Eukaryotic
Autotrophic/Heterotrophic
Members have great variety
Ex: Amoeba (bottom) and
Paramecium (top)
You need to be familiar with
BOTH of these little
guys…they will be on your
quiz/test.
20. Fungi
Mostly multicellular but some unicellular.
Has a cell wall but does NOT make its own food.
Heterotrophic
Change dead organic matter into usable nutrients… Decomposers
Ex: Bread mold, mildew, yeast, and mushrooms.
22. Animal Kingdom
Multi-Cellular
Cannot make their own
food
Most animals move
(sponge is sessile)
Vertebrates: (Backbone)
Ex: Fish, Frogs, Birds,
Snakes, and US!!
Invertebrates: (No
backbone) Ex: Sponges,
Jellyfish, Earthworm
23. A Mysterious Organism-Virus
Not sure which
classification to
put viruses
under
No cell parts
Chromosome-
like structures
Do not grow as
living things
24. A Mysterious Organism-Virus
1
.
A virus is an infectious organism that reproduces within the cells of
an infected host.
2
.
A virus is not alive until it enters the cells of a living plant or animal
.
3
.
A virus contains genetic information wrapped in a protein coat.
4
.
Viruses can be useful as well as harmful.
5
.
A virus that mutates ensures its own survival by making itself
unrecognizable to immune systems and vaccines.
6
.
Even viruses engineered for useful purposes can be harmful if
unchecked
25. Body Symmetry
Body Symmetry- The
arrangement of body parts.
Radial Symmetry- Has
body parts radiating from
a central point. Ex:
Starfish, Hydra
Bilateral Symmetry- An
animal with body parts
arranged in pairs on either
sides of a central axis. Ex:
Humans
Asymmetry- Irregular
body shape
27. Parts of the Body
Dorsal- Top of
animal (Back
Surface)
Ventral- Bottom
of animal (Belly)
Anterior- Front
of animal
Posterior- End
of animal
29. Complete Metamorphosis
Egg, Larva, Pupa, Adult
The larva looks
completely different than
the adult
Ex: Butterflies, Beetles,
Flies
30.
31. Incomplete Metamorphosis
Egg, Nymph,
Adult
A nymph is like a
much smaller
version of the
adult
Ex: Grasshopper,
Cockroaches
32. Biomes
Large areas
(ecosystems) with the
same type of climax
community
Biomes located on land
are called terrestrial
Those located in oceans,
lakes, streams, or ponds
are called aquatic
33. Biomes
Terrestrial biomes include
(out of your book)
Tundra, Taiga, Desert,
Grassland, Deciduous
Forest, and Tropical Rain
Forest
Other Biomes Savannah,
Chaparral, Mountain
Zones, etc
43. Tundra
Bearberry is a common
plant that can be found in
the Tundra.
This is in the warm
season.
Tundra
44. Taiga
Circles the North Pole
Land of mixed pine, fir,
hemlock, and spruce trees
Warmer and wetter than
Tundra
Bears, elk, deer, beavers,
owls, bobcats
45. Taiga
Mild temperatures
Abundant
precipitation during
fall winter and spring
Relatively cool dry
summer
Rocky
Acidic soils
50. Desert
Arid region with sparse plant
life
Occupy about 1/5 of the
Earth’s surface.
Little and unpredictable
rainfall..usually 50 cm of
rain or less annually
Cold and hot deserts exist
Ex: Desert Tortoise,
Diamondback Rattlesnake,
Cactus, Aloe
51. Desert
Deserts may be found throughout the world…Sahara of
North Africa, southwestern U.S., Mexico, and Australia as
well as in the basin and range area of Utah and Nevada
and in parts of western Asia.
54. Temperate
Grasslands
Between 25 and 75 cm of
precipitation annually
Large communities
covered with grasses and
similar small plants
Occupies more area than
any other biome
Ex:
55. Temperate Grasslands
Warm to hot summers’ and cold winters
Moderate seasonal precipitation
Fertile soils
Dominant plants: perennial grasses and herbs
and sunflowers, oats, rye, wheat
Dominant wildlife: coyotes badgers, deer, and
rabbits
63. Chaparral
Rainy winters, long
dry summers.
Maintained by
periodic fires.
Deer, birds, rodents,
snakes, etc.
64.
65.
66.
67. Temperate Deciduous Forest
Precipitation ranges from
70 to 150 cm annually;
Rains year round
Cold to moderate winters
with hot summers
Fertile soils
70. Tropical Rain
Forests
Most biologically diverse
Found near the equator
Warm, wet weather
dominated by lush plant
growth
Receives at least 200 cm
of precipitation annually
Dense, tangled vegetation
71. Tropical Rain Forest
Competition for light.
Soil is usually poor due
to rapid nutrient
recycling.
Animals are often tree
dwellers.
Ex. Sloths, Monkeys,
Bamboo
75. AQUATIC BIOMES
75% of Earth is covered in water.
Divided into two categories freshwater and
marine
Marine Biomes: The water is salt water.
Oceans, sea, and some inland lakes contain
salt water.
Freshwater is confined to rivers, streams,
ponds and most lakes.
76. Marine
Oceans contain the largest
amount of biomass, or
living material, of any
biome on earth.
Many living organisms are
small they cannot even be
seen.
Ecologist study marine
biomes by separating them
into different zones.
77.
78. Freshwater
Ponds, lake, rivers, etc are
also full of life but more
so around the shoreline
and in shallow areas.
Water temperature and
sunlight penetration are
factors that limits life in
freshwater biomes.
79. Freshwater
In the shallow waters you
will find plants such as
cattails and sedges.
These plants serve as food
and homes for tadpoles,
aquatic insects, worms,
crayfish, dragonflies
Minnows, bluegill, and
carp also live here.
80. Estuary
An estuary is a coastal
body of water, partially
surrounded by land, in
which freshwater and
saltwater mix.
It may extend many miles
inland.
