Q

problems with common names

A

do not describe some organisms accurately, some common names are used for many species, some organisms have more than one common name, language barrier

39
levels of classification
domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species
40
phylum
related classes
41
class
related orders
42
order
related families
43
family
related genus
44
genus
related species
45
species
specific organisms
46
aristotle
first person to classify organisms
47
what did aristotle group organisms based off of
structural similarities and complexity
48
why was aristotle's method flawed
little evidence to prove which species were more complex, did not account for evolution
49
extant
currently existing species
50
carolus linnaeus
developed binomial nomenclature
51
binomial nomenclature
a two word system for naming an organism based on characteristics
52
what did binomial nomenclature provide
scientific names
53
two parts of scientific name
genus and species
54
how to write using binomial nomenclature
first letter of genus is capitalized, everything else is lowercase, name is italicized if typed and underlined if written
55
phylogeny
the evolutionary history of a species
56
what is phylogeny limited by
knowledge of species
57
what kind of species make up phylogeny
extinct and extant
58
what kind of data is considered in phylogeny
molecular
59
models of phylogeny
phylogenic tree, cladogram
60
phylogenic tree
branched model showing the amount of time that separates species and the length of the branch signifies the span of time
61
cladogram
model that shows the relationship of relatedness when divergence occured but does not take into account the time
62
what may cladograms indicate
when speciation of traits occurs
63
LUCA
the last universal common ancestor
64
when did LUCA evolve
about 3.5-3.8 bya
65
could other organisms have been alive at lucas time
yeah but they didnt survive
66
about luca
unicellular, cell membrane, genetic information (idk dna/rna), in hydrothermal vents in deep ocean floor, autotrophic, anaerobic, all 8 cols
67
what do scientists group organisms based on
characteristics
68
dichotomous keys
a device that allows organisms to be identified in a step by step method
69
how many parts do dichotomous keys have
two
70
couplets
the two parts a stage in a dichotomous key is divided into
71
the choices in couplets are
opposites
72
where do you start with dichotomous keys
1
73
how much of the couplet will identify an organism
sometimes half sometimes both parts
74
4 rules of couplets
clues should be opposite with no third choice possible, one less couplet than organisms identified, always move downwards, start at one
