I.
Classification
A. History of classifying
1. Aristotle
a) First to classify living things
(350 B.C.).
b) Divided into 2 groups: animals and
plants.
c) Animals: habitat and behavior.
d) Plants: size and structure.
e) System used for 2000 yrs. (why was
it discarded?)
2. Carolus Linnaeus
a) 1700’s; new classification based on
similar structures.
1
b) Suggested terms genus and species.
c) Called binomial nomenclature – two
word naming system (genus and
species).
d) Used the Latin language.
e) Ex: humans:
genus:
homo
species: sapiens
II. Modern Classification
A. Taxonomy – study of the classification
systems.
1. Divides organisms into six kingdoms.
2. DNA is the newest technique of
helping classifying organism.

B. Classifying order
1. Kingdom (very general) K
King
2. Phylum
P
Phillip
3. Class
C
Came
4. Order
O
Over
5. Family
F
From
6. Genus
G
Great
7. Species (specific)
S
Spain
C. Writing scientific names
1. Scientific name – consists of genus and
species and must be underlined or
italicized.
a)Ex: humans
Homo sapiens
Homo sapiens
b)Genus is always capitalized but
species is not.

D.
Dichotomous keys
1. Series of paired statements that
describe physical characteristics of
different organisms.
2. Simplifies classification.
3. Lab on page 462-63.
III. Reproduction
A. Sexual reproduction – two cells from
different parents unite to produce the
first cell of the new organism.
1. Ex: sperm + egg = zygote
B. Asexual reproduction – new organism has
a single parent.
1. Binary fission – prokaryote (w/o a
nucleus) copies its DNA and divides in
half.
4
2. Conjugation – hollow bridge forms
between two cells and genes move from
one cell to the other.
a) Figure 19-7 page 476 shows both
binary fission and conjugation.
IV. Life Cycles
A. Alternation of Generations (plants)
1. 2 stages / generations
a) Gametophyte stage – produces
gametes which are haploid (1N).
b) Sporophyte stage – produces spores
after two haploid gametes fuse
(diploid 2N).
5
2. Figure 20-18 page 514
6
B. Metamorphosis (Insects)
1. Incomplete metamorphosis –
a)3 stages: egg, nymph, and adult
b)Insects emerge from the egg as a nymph
(small version of adult w/o wings).
c)As the nymph matures, reproductive
organs appear and wings (adult).
d)Ex: cinch bugs
2. Complete metamorphosis –
a)4 stages: egg, larva, pupa, adult
b)Egg hatches into a larva, which cannot
fly.
c)Insects builds a cocoon (pupa) and
undergoes a drastic change.
d)Fully formed, sexually mature adult
emerges.
7
e)Ex: bees, moths, beetles

Comparative Anatomy
A. Position Terms
1. Dorsal – back surface.
2. Ventral – underbelly, lower surface.
3. Anterior – front / head of the
organism.
4. Posterior – tail / hind end of the
organism.
B. Symmetry – balanced arrangement of body
parts around a point or a line.
1. Bilateral symmetry – each side is a
mirror image of the other.
a) Ex: humans, fish, birds, reptiles
2. Radial symmetry – appendages are
arranged around a central axis.
a) Ex: starfish, octopus
9
3. Spherical symmetry – animals with a
round form.
a) It has no front, back, right or
left.
b) Ex: protozoa, bacteria.
4. Asymmetrical – has no symmetry.
a) Ex: amoeba.
VI. Characteristics of Organisms
A. Levels of Development
1. The higher the organism, then the
more complex it is.
2. Figure 18-12 page 459 shows the
breakdown of each kingdom and its
characteristics.

VII. Organ systems in organisms.
A. Characteristics of each system.
1. Nervous system – coordinates the
body’s response to changes in its
internal and external environment.
a) Brain, spinal cord, peripheral
nerves.
2. Integumentary system – serves as a
barrier against infection and injury.
a) Skin, hair, nails, sweat glands
3. Respiratory system – provides oxygen
needed for cellular respiration and
removes excess carbon dioxide from
the body.
a) Nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea,
lungs.
12
4. Digestive system – converts foods into
simpler molecules that can be used by
the cells of the body.
a)Mouth, stomach, small and large
intestine.
5. Excretory system – eliminates waste
products of metabolism from the body.
a)Lungs, kidneys, bladder and urethra.
6. Skeletal system – supports and
protects the body.
a)Bones, cartilage, ligaments,
tendons.
7. Muscular system – produces voluntary
movement and helps circulate blood.
a)Skeletal, smooth, and cardiac
muscle.
13
8. Circulatory system – brings oxygen,
nutrients, and hormones to cells.
a)Heart, blood, blood vessels.
9. Endocrine system – controls growth,
development, metabolism, reproduction.
a)Pituitary, thyroid, pancreas,
ovaries and testes.
10.Reproductive system – produces
reproductive cells, in females,
nurtures and protects the embryo.
a)Testes, penis, ovaries, uterus,
vagina, Fallopian tubes.
11.Lymphatic system – helps protect the
body from disease.
a)White blood cells, spleen, lymph
nodes, lymph vessels.
