Differentiated Biology Study Guide: Classification and the Five Kingdom System KEY TERMS Carolus Linneaus artificial classification schemes natural classification schemes systematics taxonomy phylogeny heirarchy taxon (pl. taxa) Domain Kingdom Phylum(=Division in plants) Class Order Family Genus Species Latinization binomial nomenclature analogy homology Monera Archaea Protista Fungi Plantae Animalia autotroph heterotroph unicellular multicellular QUESTIONS 1. How does a natural classification system differ from an artificial classification system? Which is the best? 2. Why does a taxonomist need an in depth understanding of biological evolution? 3. In what way would it be helpful for a taxonomist to compare the amino acid sequences or triplet sequences in DNA of various organisms? 4. List types of criteria that are used to classify organisms. Include in your answer a discussion of homology and analogy. 5. Describe the Linnean system of classification. 6. Name the five Kingdoms, give examples and list the characteristics of each. 7. A new classification category above the kingdom(the Domain) has been proposed and is gaining acceptance. What are the three domains? What are their characteristics?
