Taxonomy
• Estimate of over 8.7 different million forms of life
• 3/4 of the 8.7 million species live on land, 1/4 live in
the waters
• 1735 - Carolus Linnaeus (Carl von Linne) published a
book, Systema Naturae, about the classification of
living things in a hierarchical system according to their
physical characteristics
• Taxonomy is a branch of biology that deals with the
naming and identification of organisms
Classifying Living Organisms

Kingdom Taxon
Taxonomy
• Taxonomic rank, which is either the highest rank
or in the more recent three-domain system, the
rank below domain
• Divided into smaller groups called phyla (in
zoology) or divisions (in botany)
• United States uses a system of six kingdoms
while British, Australian and Latin American
textbooks may describe five kingdoms

Five Kingdoms
Kingdom Taxon
• 1969 Robert Whittaker recognized an additional kingdom
for the Fungi
• Based mainly on differences in nutrition
• Plantae were mostly multicellular autotrophs
• Animalia multicellular heterotrophs
• Fungi multicellular saprotrophs
• Protista and Monera, included unicellular and simple
cellular colonies
• The five kingdom system may be combined with the two
empire system

Taxonomy
• Organisms that do not belong
to other kingdoms are placed
in Kingdom Protista
• Organisms are called protists
• Common characteristics of
protists:
o Mostly unicellular (some are
multicellular like algae)
o Can be heterotrophic or
autotrophic
o Most live in water
o All are eukaryotic

 Sarcodines - move with
pseudofeet

Importance of Studying Protists
Kingdom Protista
• About 40% of primary oxygen production
here on Earth is done by Algae
• Protists also serve as a main base of the
microbial food chain
• Protists recycle nutrients back to the
environment for use by other organisms
by consuming bacteria and decomposing
dead plants and animals

Importance of Studying Protists
Kingdom Protista
• Protists serve as an important food for many
small aquatic animals
• Some protists are responsible for deadly
diseases like malaria, toxoplasmosis and
amoeba
• Some scientists believe that protists hold the
key to unraveling the secrets of evolutionary
history

Taxonomy
• The taxonomic division that comprises
of all living or extinct plants
• There are almost 300,000 different
species of plants on Earth
• Plants provide almost all the oxygen
on Earth which is vital for most
organisms
• Plants are able to make oxygen
through the process known as
photosynthesis
• Plants can make their own food that is
why they are first in the steps to many
food chains in the world

Kingdom Plantae
• Plants can be found on land,
oceans, and fresh water
• Plants have been on Earth
for millions of years and
even before the existence of
animals
• Three main features of
plants that distinguish them
from animals:
o Plants have chlorophyll
o Plants’ have cell walls which
are made up of cellulose
o Plants are fixed in one place

Kingdom Animalia
• All animals are members of the Kingdom Animalia
• Characteristics of Animals:
o Multicellular and heterotrophs
o Most ingest food and digest it in an internal cavity
o Animal cells lack the rigid cell walls
o Made up of cells organized into tissues, each tissue specialized to
some degree to perform specific functions
o In most, tissues are organized into even more specialized organs

• Characteristics of Animals:
o Most animals are capable of complex and relatively rapid
movement compared to plants and other organisms
o Most reproduce sexually, by means of differentiated eggs and
sperm
o Somewhere around 9 or 10 million species of animals inhabit
the earth
o Animals range in size from no more than a few cells to
organisms weighing many tons, such as blue whales and giant
squid
o Most animals inhabit the seas, with fewer in fresh water and
even fewer on land
