The document discusses the goals and development of binomial nomenclature and scientific classification systems. It explains that Carolus Linnaeus developed a two-word naming system for species and a hierarchical taxonomy with seven levels (kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species). The taxonomy aims to organize living and fossil species into meaningful groups based on anatomical similarities and evolutionary relationships. However, traditional classification based only on outward similarities has limitations that modern schemes seek to address.

Zoological nomenclature
This document provides information on zoological nomenclature and the rules for naming species. It discusses the proper formatting for binomial names, including using commas and parentheses. It also describes new combinations when a species is moved to a different genus. Other topics covered include the use of brackets, abbreviations, the derivation of names, and the shortest and longest binomial and trinomial names. The document also discusses availability, which determines whether a published name can be officially recognized.
Chordata Urochordata
Tunicates, also known as sea squirts, are small marine invertebrates that are classified as chordates. They have a notochord during early development that is later lost, but replaced by a backbone in vertebrates. Tunicates have a bilateral symmetrical body structure, lack bones, and use muscles to move against their body. They are hermaphrodites that fertilize eggs internally and eject larvae. Tunicates filter feed by taking in water and extracting particles, and can expel water if frightened. They are considered evolutionary links between invertebrates and vertebrates.
Classification
The document discusses biological classification and taxonomy. It introduces binomial nomenclature, which assigns organisms a two-part scientific name, as well as hierarchical classification systems. It also describes modern classification systems that incorporate data from fossils, physical traits, and DNA/RNA to construct phylogenetic trees representing evolutionary relationships among organisms.
Comp.ana. ostracoderms,acanthodians,placoderms
The document describes several groups of ancient jawed and jawless fishes:
- Ostracoderms were the oldest known craniates, dating back to the Ordovician and lacking jaws and paired fins.
- Acanthodians were early jawed fishes with cartilaginous skeletons and bony scales or spines.
- Placoderms were the first armored fishes with true jaws, some reaching large sizes. They are divided into orders including Arthrodira with jointed armor, Antiarchi with enclosed pectoral fins, and Petalichthyida typified by splayed fins.
Introduction to zoological nomenclature and the ICZN
The document discusses the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN), the body that establishes and maintains the international rules for naming animal species. It outlines the ICZN's role in revising and publishing the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, considering cases of nomenclatural uncertainty, and ruling on specific naming cases. It also briefly discusses some of the principles and challenges in zoological nomenclature, including priority, homonymy, and typification.
16. Class Osteichthyes Notes
The document summarizes the key characteristics of the bony fish class Osteichthyes. Bony fish have a skeleton made of bone, scales, and an operculum covering their gills. They possess fins, swim bladders, and their mouths and jaws allow for better movement than sharks to aid feeding. Their internal anatomy includes two-chambered hearts, gills for gas exchange, lateral lines for sensing vibrations, and various sensory organs like eyes and ears. Bony fish exhibit diverse behaviors such as forming territories, schools, and undertaking migrations.
Chapter 17.2
This document discusses how natural selection and genetic drift can cause evolution by changing allele frequencies in populations over time. It explains that natural selection may cause some alleles to become more common if they increase an individual's chances of survival and reproduction. Genetic drift is the random change in allele frequencies that can occur in small populations by chance. The document also describes the conditions required by the Hardy-Weinberg principle for a population to maintain genetic equilibrium and not evolve.
Type method
There are specific scientific rules for naming taxa and designating type specimens. The type specimen is a single specimen (or in some cases illustrations) that is associated with the scientific name of a species or taxon. It serves as a reference that defines the application of the name. Key terms include holotype, paratype, lectotype, and neotype which refer to different categories of name-bearing types under the formal rules of taxonomic nomenclature. Proper designation and preservation of type specimens is important for ensuring consistency in scientific names over time.

Reptiles, Birds And Mammals
The document discusses three key adaptations - amniotic eggs, internal fertilization, and water-tight skin - that allowed reptiles, birds, and mammals to thrive on land. It then describes the diversity of living reptiles, birds, and mammals, including their physical traits and behaviors that enabled each group to occupy different ecological niches on land and aerial habitats. The document traces the evolutionary history and relationships between these groups, noting that birds and crocodilians are more closely related to dinosaurs, while mammals evolved from reptile ancestors called therapsids.
Birds
- Birds evolved from reptiles and Archaeopteryx possessed both reptilian and avian features. Key avian traits include feathers, hollow lightweight bones, beaks, endothermy, and amniotic eggs.
- Birds have highly specialized organ systems for flight including strong heart and respiratory systems. Their feathers provide insulation and flight abilities.
- There are many orders of birds with varied traits like waterfowl that are aquatic, owls with keen vision and hearing, and songbirds that communicate through song.
Chapter 16 worksheets
- Charles Darwin developed the theory of evolution by natural selection to explain how life evolves over time through descent with modification from common ancestors.
- During his voyage on the HMS Beagle, Darwin made extensive observations of wildlife and fossils. He noticed patterns of biodiversity including variations between species in different locations.
- Darwin was influenced by ideas from scientists like Lyell, Hutton, and Lamarck. Lyell and Hutton proposed that geological changes occurred gradually over long periods, influencing Darwin's view of biological changes also requiring vast timescales.
Chordata
The phylum Chordata includes animals that possess three defining features: a notochord, a dorsal hollow nerve cord, and pharyngeal slits. It is divided into four subphyla: Hemichordata, Urochordata, Cephalochordata, and Vertebrates. Hemichordata are considered the lowest chordates and include acorn worms. Urochordata includes tunicates like sea squirts and salps. Cephalochordata consists of lancelets. Vertebrates are the largest group and include humans.
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.
What is Systematics
Systematics is the study of the historical relationships between biological organisms and the understanding of biodiversity. It aims to trace phylogeny and classify taxa in an evolutionary context. Systematics encompasses fields like taxonomy, classification, nomenclature, biogeography, and phylogenetics. It determines the unique and shared properties of species and higher taxa, classifies life to make diversity accessible to other disciplines, and has contributed insights in areas like epidemiology, agriculture, and conservation through accurate identification and classification of organisms.
Agnathan Fish Notes
The document discusses early fish evolution, including jawless fish like hagfish and lampreys. It describes key characteristics of hagfish, including that they have no backbone but are still considered vertebrates. It then discusses different classes of jawless fish like lampreys and ostracoderms, which were early armored fish. Placoderms followed as the first jawed fish.

Edited PowerPoint presentation of Jean Baptiste Lamarck's theory of inheritance of acquired characters
This PowerPoint presentation is collected from different websites and PowerPoint presentation Digestive system of reptiles
Most reptiles are carnivorous, with adaptations for capturing and swallowing prey. Snakes have highly mobile skulls and jaws that allow them to swallow prey larger than their heads. Their backward-pointing teeth and forward-positioned glottis enable swallowing. Some snakes like vipers have hollow fangs connected to venom glands, while rear-fanged snakes' grooved teeth channel venom. Venoms range from neurotoxins in cobras to hemotoxins in vipers.
Vertebrate ch1
This document provides an overview of the history of comparative vertebrate anatomy. It discusses how early scientists like Aristotle classified and compared animal anatomies. Important figures like William Harvey advocated for the study of comparative anatomy by dissecting different animals. Later, Darwin used comparative anatomy and the study of animal structures to develop his theory of evolution by natural selection. The field continued to advance with contributions from scientists such as Richard Owen, Thomas Huxley, and Karl Heinrich Heackel.
Systematics
Classical and molecular taxonomic parameters, species concept, systematic gradation of animals, nomenclature, modern scheme of animal classification into sub-Kingdom, division, section, phyla and minor phyla
17.2 modern classification
This document discusses several concepts for classifying and organizing life's diversity, including typological, biological, and phylogenetic species concepts. It also describes how scientists use morphological and biochemical characters, as well as molecular clocks based on gene and DNA comparisons, to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships and construct cladograms showing evolutionary relationships among species.
Fish classification
This document provides an overview of fish classification systems presented by Nelson in 1984 and updated in 2016. It outlines the major taxonomic groups of fish, including jawless fish (hagfish and lampreys), cartilaginous fish (sharks and rays), and bony fish classified into ray-finned fish and lobe-finned fish. The updated 2016 classification separates hagfish from other fish and divides bony fish into two subclasses based on fin structure.
Urochordata.pptx
This document summarizes the key characteristics of tunicates (urochordates). It describes their habitat and habits, physical features, organ systems, life cycles, classification, and major orders. Tunicates are exclusively marine animals found around the world in oceans and seas. They can be solitary, colonial, or form aggregates. Their adult bodies are sac-like and lack segments or appendages.
Early tetrapods and modern amphibians
The document discusses the evolution of tetrapods from aquatic fish to terrestrial vertebrates. It describes how amphibians like Tiktaalik were transitional forms that evolved traits like basic limbs that could be used to push through shallow water. Later tetrapods like Ichthyostega had limb morphology suggesting they could walk on land while retaining some aquatic traits. Modern amphibians are divided into three orders - caecilians, salamanders, and frogs. They generally reproduce via aquatic eggs and larvae but have diverse adaptations for terrestrial life as adults.
Earth's early history
1) Early Earth had a different atmosphere than today and was bombarded by asteroids and comets. 2) Miller-Urey experiments showed how organic molecules could form in early Earth conditions. 3) RNA may have come before DNA and led to early life forms. Photosynthetic bacteria later produced oxygen that changed Earth's atmosphere.
Vertebrate Classes
This document provides an overview of vertebrate classification and characteristics. It begins with the taxonomic classification of the Virginia opossum from the broadest (Animalia) to most specific (Didelphis virginiana) categories. The rest of the document outlines the key characteristics of different vertebrate classes including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and bony and jawless fish as well as their evolutionary relationships and examples.
Evidence For Evolution
The document discusses multiple lines of evidence that support the theory of evolution through natural selection, as proposed by Charles Darwin.
1. Hierarchical organization of life forms reflects evolutionary relationships, with more closely related organisms having more recent common ancestors.
2. The fossil record provides evidence of transitional forms and examples of evolution over time, such as the evolution of horses and whales.
3. Comparative anatomy reveals homologous and vestigial structures that indicate common descent with modification.
4. Comparative embryology shows that more closely related organisms have more similar embryonic development.
5. Molecular biology evidence, like DNA and protein comparisons, provides very strong support for evolution through the finding of common ancestry.
Evolutionary genetics.pdf
This document summarizes the theories of evolution proposed by Jean-Baptiste Lamarck and Charles Darwin. Lamarck proposed the theory of inheritance of acquired characteristics, suggesting that organisms can pass on traits acquired during their lifetime to their offspring. He believed giraffes evolved long necks from stretching to reach leaves. Darwin proposed the theory of evolution by natural selection, where favorable variations are preserved because they help organisms better survive and reproduce in their environment. According to Darwin, giraffes with longer necks were better able to survive because they could reach higher leaves for food. Both theories attempted to explain the diversity of life and fossil records, but Darwin's theory of natural selection became more widely accepted.
Phylogeney
The evolutionary development or history of a species or of a taxonomic group of organisms (The phylogeny of a group of taxa (singular: taxon) (species, etc.) is its evolutionary history)
Biology - Chp 18 - Classification - PowerPoint
The document summarizes the evolution of biological classification systems from Linnaeus' initial two-name system to the current three domain system. It describes how early classification grouped organisms based on physical similarities, while modern evolutionary classification is based on evolutionary relationships and genetic similarities revealed by molecular analysis. The three domain system divides all living things into Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya.
Chapter 18.2
1) Evolutionary classification groups organisms into taxa based on their evolutionary relationships and common ancestry rather than just physical similarities.
2) A clade is a group containing an ancestor and all its descendants. Cladograms illustrate how clades are related by showing branching patterns of evolutionary lineages.
3) Cladistic analysis focuses on shared derived characters, traits that evolved more recently in a lineage, to determine how organisms are related and assign them to clades.

Chapter 18.3
1) The document discusses the evolution of classification systems for living things from Linnaeus's original two kingdoms to the current three domain system.
2) Originally, organisms were classified as animals or plants, but new information led to five kingdoms being recognized - Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.
3) Further genetic analysis resulted in the current three domain system of Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya, which better reflects evolutionary relationships between organisms.
Huaorani – missionaries essay
American Christian missionaries made contact with the Huaorani people in Ecuador in the 1950s. Five missionaries were killed by Huaorani warriors. The author argues that the Huaorani warriors should not be punished for killing the missionaries for several reasons: a Huaorani lied about being attacked, the Huaorani did not speak English and did not understand the missionaries, and the missionaries had guns while the Huaorani only had spears. The author believes the missionaries invaded Huaorani territory and the Huaorani responded out of fear and confusion over the situation.
The geologic time scale 1
The geologic time scale shows the eras and periods of Earth's history. During the Jurassic period of the Mesozoic era, dinosaurs like T-Rex and Velociraptor lived. A meteor wiped out the dinosaurs and allowed mammals to evolve and dominate. Early humans were cavemen that evolved to become smarter and build the first civilizations. The document provides an overview of major events and periods within the geologic time scale.

Chapter 30.1
The human body is organized at multiple levels, from cells to tissues to organs to organ systems. Cells combine to form tissues like epithelial, connective, nervous, and muscle tissue. Groups of tissues working together form organs like the eye. Organ systems are groups of organs that work together, such as the nervous system. The body maintains homeostasis through feedback inhibition, where a stimulus triggers a response that counteracts the stimulus, keeping conditions stable. Examples include regulating temperature and blood glucose levels. The liver plays an important role in homeostasis by processing toxins, storing and releasing glucose, and regulating blood sugar levels.
Chapter 30.2
The document provides an overview of food and nutrition, including:
1) Food provides energy and raw materials for the body. Energy comes from calories released during cellular respiration from food molecules. Raw materials are used to build and repair tissues.
2) The body needs nutrients including water, carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, and minerals. Carbohydrates, fats, and proteins provide energy while vitamins and minerals help chemical reactions.
3) Nutrients come from foods and have different classifications. Carbohydrates are simple or complex, saturated and unsaturated fats affect health differently, and proteins supply amino acids for growth.
Chapter 27.1
1) Animals obtain food through various methods such as filter feeding, detritivory, carnivory, herbivory, and nutritional symbiosis.
2) Digestion can occur intracellularly through specialized cells or extracellularly through digestive tracts and gastrovascular cavities. Digestive tracts break down food through mechanical and chemical digestion.
3) Mouthparts and digestive systems are specialized for different diets. Herbivores have adaptations for grinding plants while carnivores have sharp teeth for tearing meat. Herbivores also rely on microbial symbionts to aid in digestion.
Chapter 32.3
The document summarizes the key functions and structures of the integumentary system, which includes the skin, hair, and nails. The principal functions of the system are protection, temperature regulation, excretion, information gathering, and vitamin D production. The main structures are the epidermis and dermis layers of the skin, hair follicles, sebaceous and sweat glands. Some common skin problems discussed are acne, which develops from clogged hair follicles, and skin cancer from excessive sun exposure.
Chapter 18.1
The document discusses the goals and development of binomial nomenclature and biological classification systems. It explains that Carolus Linnaeus developed a two-part naming system for species and a hierarchical taxonomy with seven levels from kingdom to species. The taxonomy aims to organize living things into groups based on anatomical similarities and evolutionary relationships. Problems can arise when classifications rely only on outward appearances rather than evolutionary lineages.
Chapter 32.1
The skeletal system consists of 206 bones that make up the axial skeleton (skull, vertebral column, rib cage) and appendicular skeleton (bones of arms, legs, pelvis, shoulder). Bones provide structure, protect organs, allow movement, store minerals, and form blood cells. Typical long bones have outer compact bone, inner spongy bone, and bone marrow. Cartilage develops into bone through ossification before and after birth. Joints like the knee connect bones and allow movement through ligaments, synovial fluid, and other structures. Common bone and joint issues include fractures, ligament tears, inflammation, arthritis, and osteoporosis.
Chapter 27.4
The document discusses how different animals excrete nitrogenous wastes like ammonia while balancing water levels. Small animals allow ammonia to diffuse through their skin, while larger ones have excretory systems. Mammals convert ammonia to urea, while birds and reptiles produce uric acid. Aquatic animals face challenges with water balance due to osmosis, while land animals conserve water through specialized structures and waste forms like uric acid pastes.
Chapter 32.2
There are three main types of muscle tissue in the human body: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Skeletal muscle is striated and attached to bones, enabling voluntary movement. Smooth muscle is found in internal organs and blood vessels, allowing involuntary functions. Cardiac muscle is found only in the heart, where it contracts rhythmically to pump blood throughout the body. Muscle contraction occurs via a sliding filament model, where myosin cross-bridges attach and pull actin filaments inward, shortening the sarcomere. Skeletal muscles connect to bones via tendons and work in opposing pairs to leverage bones and create movement around joints.
Chapter 27.2
All animals have evolved respiratory structures that promote the passive diffusion of oxygen from areas of high concentration to low concentration and carbon dioxide in the opposite direction. Respiratory structures provide a large surface area of thin, moist, selectively permeable membrane and maintain concentration gradients across the membrane. Aquatic animals use gills or body surfaces for gas exchange, while land animals use organs like lungs, tracheae, or skin. Lung structure has evolved from simple sacs in amphibians to divided chambers in reptiles to extensive branching and alveoli in mammals to support their higher metabolisms.
Chapter 27.3
There are two main types of circulatory systems - open and closed. In an open system, blood is only partially contained as it travels through sinuses and vessels to directly contact tissues before returning to the heart. In a closed system, blood is entirely contained within vessels that extend throughout the body. Most vertebrates have a closed system. Circulatory patterns also differ - single-loop systems have one pump moving blood unidirectionally while double-loop systems have two pumps moving blood to and from the lungs or gills in two separate loops. Modern mammals have evolved four-chambered hearts that act as two separate pumps to separately oxygenate blood.

18 Regulation of Gene Expression
This document summarizes regulation of gene expression in bacteria and eukaryotes. It discusses how bacteria regulate genes through the operon model, including repressible and inducible operons like the trp and lac operons. In eukaryotes, it describes various levels of gene expression regulation, from chromatin structure and histone/DNA modifications, to transcription factors and epigenetic inheritance. Gene expression can be regulated at the stages of transcription, RNA processing, transport, translation and degradation.
Bio17 The History of Life
The document summarizes key events in early Earth history based on evidence from the fossil record:
- Early Earth had a toxic atmosphere but cooled enough for liquid water oceans to form around 3.8 billion years ago. Early organic molecules formed in simulations of Earth's atmosphere.
- The first life forms were unicellular bacteria that evolved around 3.5 billion years ago without oxygen. Photosynthetic bacteria introduced oxygen to the atmosphere around 2.2 billion years ago.
- Eukaryotic cells evolved from symbiotic relationships between prokaryotes around 2 billion years ago, resulting in mitochondria and chloroplasts. Sexual reproduction and multicellularity further increased genetic variation.

This document provides an overview of classifying organisms into a biological hierarchy. It discusses how Carolus Linnaeus developed binomial nomenclature to scientifically name each species, and a classification system that organized species into seven taxa: species, genus, family, order, class, phylum, and kingdom based on anatomical similarities. Over time, problems with this traditional classification system emerged as it did not always reflect evolutionary relationships between organisms.
Classification%20 powerpoint[1]
The document discusses problems with common names for organisms and how scientific names are used to precisely identify species. It introduces binomial nomenclature, which assigns every species a two-part Latin or Latinized name. This naming system was developed by Carolus Linnaeus and allows unambiguous identification of organisms around the world. The document also discusses the hierarchical taxonomic classification system and how dichotomous keys can be used to identify unknown organisms.
Classification prt1
Classification systems help biologists organize living things into groups based on shared characteristics. Biologists use a seven-level system of classification that includes kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. This system was developed by Carolus Linnaeus in the 1700s and is still used today. Each level provides more specific details about an organism's characteristics and evolutionary relationships. Scientific names provide a standardized way to identify organisms worldwide.
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.
Taxonomy
Taxonomy is the branch of biology concerned with classifying and naming organisms. Biologists who study taxonomy are called taxonomists. Key points covered in the document include:
- Taxonomy involves grouping organisms in a hierarchical system from broadest (kingdom) to most specific (species) levels.
- Carl Linnaeus is considered the father of taxonomy for developing the binomial nomenclature system of classifying organisms using genera and species names that is still used today.
- There are estimated to be 8.7 million total species on Earth across the kingdoms of life.

1. The document discusses the classification of organisms and the hierarchical system developed by Carolus Linnaeus.
2. It includes the seven main taxa from largest to smallest: kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species.
3. Evolutionary relationships can be shown through cladograms and phylogenic trees, which illustrate how organisms are related through shared ancestors and derived characteristics.
Taxonomy2
The document provides information about taxonomy, including:
1) Taxonomy is the branch of biology concerned with grouping and naming organisms. It began as people wanted to organize the living things they observed.
2) Carolus Linnaeus developed the modern system of binomial nomenclature, assigning every species a two-part scientific name based on genus and species to standardize naming across languages.
3) The hierarchical classification system ranks taxa from broad kingdoms to specific species based on observable similarities, allowing scientists to communicate unambiguously about organisms.
Chapter 18 Lecture- Classification
The document discusses the evolution of biological classification systems from Linnaeus' initial two kingdom system to the current three domain system. It describes the key features used to classify organisms at different taxonomic levels and explains how modern evolutionary classification is based on phylogeny rather than just physical similarities. The increasing use of DNA evidence and molecular clocks to study evolutionary relationships is also summarized.
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.
26 phylogeny and the tree of life
- The document discusses how biologists reconstruct evolutionary histories and relationships between species through phylogenetic analysis. It uses the example of distinguishing snakes from legless lizards.
- Phylogenies are constructed by comparing traits across species and potential close relatives to determine how they are related through shared ancestors. They show patterns of descent, not just phenotypic similarity.
- Understanding phylogenies can help with applications like identifying wild relatives of domesticated species and determining the species identity of samples by comparing DNA sequences.
Classification of living things
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.
7. Classification Notes
The document discusses the history and science of taxonomy and biological classification. It describes early classification systems from Aristotle and the development of binomial nomenclature by Carolus Linnaeus in the 1700s. Modern taxonomy is evidenced-based and uses characteristics like DNA, biochemistry and evolution to classify organisms into taxonomic groups from kingdom to species. The five kingdom system is outlined, separating life into the kingdoms of Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.
Taxonomy dierdorff
Taxonomy is the branch of biology concerned with grouping and naming organisms. It began as people sought to organize the living things they observed. Classifying organisms helps scientists study and understand the diversity of life on Earth and allows different researchers to communicate unambiguously about species. Carolus Linnaeus developed the modern taxonomic system, which ranks organisms into a seven-level hierarchy of kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. The last two levels - genus and species - make up the binomial nomenclature that uniquely identifies each species scientifically.
023 - Aqua Latin 101 (Tank Talk 35-04 - December 2007)
The document discusses the importance and benefits of using Latin or scientific names when identifying aquatic plants and fish. It notes that common names can vary widely between stores and regions, leading to confusion. Latin names provide a standardized naming system that is universally understood regardless of language or location. The document then provides a brief history of the development of Latin naming by Linnaeus in the 1700s. It explains the taxonomy hierarchy and rules for writing and pronouncing Latin names correctly. Finally, it gives some examples of common roots in Latin names and their meanings, such as colors, numbers, markings, and sizes.
Classification of animalm kknolnolmomos.pptx
The document summarizes animal classification and taxonomy. It discusses how zoologists estimate over 4 million animal species that are divided into 33 phyla based on body plan, similarities, and evolution. Historically, animals were divided into vertebrates and invertebrates based on having a backbone or not, but this classification lacked scientific basis. The document then explains Linnaeus' hierarchical taxonomic system used for scientific classification of animals, which includes domains, kingdoms, phyla, classes, orders, families, genera, and species. It provides examples of taxonomic categories for humans, gorillas, dogs, and other animals.
5.4 Classification
The document discusses taxonomy and classification of organisms. It covers:
1. Carl Linnaeus developed the binomial system of nomenclature which assigns organisms a two-part scientific name at the genus and species level.
2. Organisms are classified into a taxonomic hierarchy of increasing specificity from kingdom to species based on their characteristics. The hierarchy includes kingdoms, phyla, classes, orders, families, genera, and species.
3. Classification involves grouping organisms based on traits like morphology, molecular differences, and life cycles. Examples are given of classifying plants into four phyla and animals into six phyla based on simple external features.
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.
Unit 17a Scientific Classification
The document discusses taxonomy and classification systems. It describes how Linnaeus developed the scientific naming system still used today. Modern classification is based on evolutionary relationships and uses evidence from living species, fossils, and molecular data. Cladistics is a common method to classify organisms based on shared ancestry, placing species in evolutionary trees based on which share a more recent common ancestor.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
