CLASSIFICATION NOTES: What is the importance of classifying things?
______________________________________________
______________________________________________
______________________________________________
______________________ is placing things into categories based on similar characteristics
_________________________ is the science of classifying organisms
________________________category; very general; most diverse; most inclusive
____________ category; most specific; least diverse; most exclusive
HOW WILL YOU REMEMBER THE ORDER????
Carolus Linnaeus : 1732, came up with the universal 2 word-naming system called _____________________________based on the dead language called LATIN. Each organism has a _____________ and _____________________ name.
_________________ is written first and is _________________________. Can be underlined or italicized but not both.
________________ is written second and is _______________________. Can be underlined or italicized but not both.
Scientific names can tell scientists how closely related organisms are to each other.
Based on their names, you know that the baboons The bullfrog, Rana catesbeiana, is most closely related Papio annubis and Papio cynocephalus do not belong to the _____________.to the same:
a. Family c. Order a. Spotted chorus frog, Pseudacris clarkib. Genus d. Species b. Asian flying frog, Polypedates leucomystax
c. Northern leopard frog, Rana pipiens---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Scientific name of lion?__________________________
Of deer? ______________________________________
Of wolf?_______________________________________
Most closely related?_____________________________
What categories do they all have in common?

Dichotomous Key on Norns
Norns belong to the genus Norno and can be divided into eight species that are generally located in specific regions of the world. Use the dichotomous key to identify the Norns below. Write their complete scientific name (genus + species) in the blank.
1. Has pointed ears .................................... go to 3 Has rounded ears ....................................go to 2
2. Has no tail ............................................. Norno kentuckyus Has tail .................................................. Norno dakotus
3. Ears point upward .................................... go to 5 Ears point downward .................................go to 4
4. Engages in waving behavior ............................. Norno dallus Has hairy tufts on ears .......................................Norno californius
5. Engages in waving behavior ............................. Norn wala-wala Does not engage in waving behavior....................go to 6
6. Has hair on head ............................................. Norno beverlus Has no hair on head (may have ear tufts) .......go to 7

Cladograms
Background: Cladistics is the study of evolutionary classification. Cladograms show evolutionary relationships among organisms. Comparative morphology investigates characteristics for homology and analogy to determine which organisms share a recent common ancestor. A cladogram will begin by grouping organisms based on a characteristics displayed by ALL the members of the group. Subsequently, the larger group will contain increasingly smaller groups that share the traits of the groups before them. However, they also exhibit distinct changes as the new species evolve. Further, molecular evidence from genes which rarely mutate can provide molecular clocks that tell us how long ago organisms diverged, unlocking the secrets of organisms that may have similar convergent morphology but do not share a recent common ancestor.
Questions:
1. Which organisms in the cladogram in the diagram above have fur and mammary glands?
2. Which organisms in the cladogram in figure 1 have jaws?
3. Based on the cladogram in figure 1, which shared a common ancestor most recently – a mouse and a lizard or a mouse and a perch?
4. Which two organisms would you expect to have a closer matching DNA sequence for a gene that is NOT under selective pressure in nature – Hagfish and Pigeon or Hagfish and Salamander?

SELF-QUIZ:
1. What structure is common to all domains of living organisms?

4. A table of animal characteristics is provided below:
Rodents, such as mice, have a notochord, hair, 3 inner ear bones, and produce milk. They have five toes on each foot. Rodents, therefore, are classified as –
A Chordates only, not mammals or cetartiodactyls.B Chordates and cetartiodactyls, but not mammals.C Chordates and mammals, but not cetartiodactyls.D Chordates, mammals, and cetartiodactyls
5. Why is it important to have a common classification system in the worldwide scientific community? It –
A allows scientists to classify organisms and assign each living thing a universally accepted name.B makes certain that all future discoveries of organisms will fit into an existing category.C prevents different countries from using their own languages for common names of organisms.D provides a way to ensure that species will no longer change over time.
