- Taxonomy is the science of classifying organisms based on similarities. It involves grouping organisms and assigning them both common names and unique scientific names.
- Scientific names use binomial nomenclature, consisting of the genus and species written in italics. The authority is also included for formal names.
- Phylogeny studies evolutionary relationships through traits like morphology, fossils, DNA and more. Phylogenetic trees show hypothesized relationships and can be based on shared derived characters in cladistics.

Icai 17.02.2017 Taxation of foreign remmitancesShweta Ajmera
Due to globalisation,cross border transaction has been growing. Understanding TDS applicability on cross border transaction or foreign remmitance to Non residents is need of an hour. In this PPT I have covered TDS provisions on foreign remmitance.
Easy automation choices for landscape businessesDavid Marciniak
Running a landscape business can be a huge challenge. The right tools can make that a lot easier, and I've found some technology tools that are low cost and REALLY useful.
The topic of Discussion is the Process of Classification, Identification & Nomenclature of an organism based upon their similarities and placing them under a common taxa. The rules of Nomenclature and Taxonomy.
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)
This presentation was provided by Steph Pollock of The American Psychological Association’s Journals Program, and Damita Snow, of The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), for the initial session of NISO's 2024 Training Series "DEIA in the Scholarly Landscape." Session One: 'Setting Expectations: a DEIA Primer,' was held June 6, 2024.
How to Build a Module in Odoo 17 Using the Scaffold MethodCeline George
Odoo provides an option for creating a module by using a single line command. By using this command the user can make a whole structure of a module. It is very easy for a beginner to make a module. There is no need to make each file manually. This slide will show how to create a module using the scaffold method.

3. Autotrophs capture the light energy from
sunlight and convert it to chemical
energy
they use for food.
Heterotrophs must get energy by eating
autotrophs or other heterotrophs.
Decomposers, aka saprobes, are heterotrophs
that recycle dead organisms by breaking them
down.
6. • Taxonomy is the science of grouping
and naming organisms.
• Classification the grouping of
information or objects based on
similarities.
7. Why use a dead
language?
•We only know about a fraction of the
organisms that exist or have existed on
Earth.
•Taxonomists give a unique scientific name to
each species they know about whether it’s
alive
today or extinct.
• The scientific name comes from one of two
“dead” languages – Latin or ancient Greek.
15. •There are at least 50 common names for
the animal shown on the previous 7 slides.
•Common names vary according to region.
•Soooo……why use a scientific name?
16.
•a two name system for writing scientific names.
•The genus name is written first (always Capitalized).
•The species name is written second (never
capitalized).
•Both words are
italicized if typed or underlined if hand written.
Example: Felis concolor or F. concolor
Which is the genus? The species?
Binomial Nomenclature
17. "Formal" scientific names should have a third
part, the authority.
The authority is not italicized or
underlined.
The authority is written as an abbreviation of
the last name of the person responsible for
naming the organism. Since Carolus Linnaeus
was the first person to name many plants,
the L. for Linnaeus is very common in plant
scientific names.
An example is Quercus alba L.
18. Phylogeny, the evolutionary history of an
organism, is the cornerstone of a branch
of biology called systematic taxonomy.
Systematics, as systematic taxonomy is
commonly called, is the study of the
evolution of biological diversity.
19. A phylogenetic tree is a family tree
that shows a hypothesis about the
evolutionary relationships thought
to exist among groups of organisms.
It does not show the actual
evolutionary history of organisms.
Why a hypothesis?
27. These animals have evolved similar adaptations
for obtaining food because they occupy similar
niches. What can you infer about their
phylogeny from their geographic locations?
Convergent Evolution
28. Analogous Structures -
•Traits that are morphologically and
functionally similar even though there
is no common ancestor.
Convergent evolution leads to……….
33. Cladistics - is a relatively
new system of phylogenetics
classification that uses
shared derived characters to
establish evolutionary
relationships. A derived
character is a feature that
apparently evolved only within
the group under
consideration.
35. There are three basic
assumptions in cladistics:
1.Organisms within a group are
descended from a common
ancestor.
2.There is a bifurcating pattern
of cladogenesis.
3.Change in characteristics
occurs in lineages over time.
36. A phylogenetic tree based on a
cladistic analysis is called a
cladogram.
What derived character is shared by
all the animals on the cladogram on
the next slide?
37.
38. The acacia and its
ants are an example
of coevolution. Each
influences the others
evolution.
Can you think of any
other examples of
coevolution?
39. Punctuated Equilibrium
“instead of a slow, continuous movement,
evolution tends to be characterized by long
periods of virtual standstill ("equilibrium"),
"punctuated" by episodes of very fast
development of new forms”
The "punctuated equilibrium" theory of
Niles Eldredge and Stephen Jay Gould was
proposed as a criticism of the traditional
Darwinian theory of evolution…what is it
called?
40. • A key is a device for easily and quickly
identifying
an unknown organism.
• The dichotomous key is the most widely
used type in biological sciences.
• The user is presented with a sequence of
choices between two statements, couplets,
based on characteristics of the organism. By
always making the correct choice, the name
of the organism will be revealed.
The Dichotomous Key
43. The Three Domains
• Domain Archaea
– Includes newly discovered cell types
– Contains 1 kingdom – the Archaebacteria
•Domain Bacteria
– Includes other members of old kingdom
Monera
– Has 1 kingdom – the Eubacteria
•Domain Eukarya
– Includes all kingdoms composed of organisms made
up of eukaryotic cells
– Protista
– Fungi
– Animalia
– Plantae
44. The major classification levels,
from most general to most specific
(several of these have subdivisions)
A group at any level is a taxon.
45. Kingdoms are divided into groups called phyla
Phyla are subdivided into classes
Classes are subdivided into orders
Orders are subdivided into families
Families are divided into genera
Genera contain closely related species
Species is unique
Categories within Kingdoms
