Test Review Questions for Taxonomy Test #2 December 21st, 2010 Viruses Explain why viruses are not placed in the five kingdom classification system. Draw and label a virus with all possible parts. Give the size range of viruses. Summarize the features that viruses have in common with living things and the features that set them apart from living things. .Explain the different mechanisms or pathways by which viruses operate within cells and the relationship between them. the lytic pathway the lysogenic pathway Differentiate between different viral types: DNA viruses and RNA viruses Kingdom Monera State the principal characteristics of members of the kingdom Monera. Explain the differences between the Eubacteria and the Archaebacteria. Explain why some taxonomists think that the Archaebacteria should be considered as a sixth kingdom. State the common and scientific names for the three basic shapes of bacteria and be capable of drawing them. Describe the arrangement that the following prefixes describe in relation to bacteria: strepto..., staphylo..., diplo..., List the modes of nutrition found in bacteria. Describe the most common form of reproduction in bacteria. Draw and label a typical bacterial cell. Kingdom Protista State the characteristics of the kingdom Protista. Name the three distinct subgroups that make up the Protista (according to Nelson textbook). State the main characteristics of each of the three phyla that make up the Protista. State the characteristics by which the Protista are classified. Summarize the modes of nutrition found in this kingdom and the subgroups in which each is found. Describe the main characteristics of the representative organisms: euglena, paramecium and amoeba. Draw and accurately label euglena, paramecium and amoeba. Kingdom Fungi Review Notes on webpage Kingdom Plantae General Characteristics Kingdom Animalia State the principal characteristics of the kingdom Animalia. Name the two main subgroups of the kingdom and summarize the differences between them. Explain the origin of the three germ layers in developing embryos. Name and explain the types of body symmetry found in the animal kingdom. Relate the type of symmetry exhibited by an animal to its mode of locomotion. Explain the evolutionary benefits of cephalization in the higher, mobile animals. State the main characteristics of the phyla making up the kingdom Animalia.
