Chapter 19 bio
The binomial system of nomenclature is structured so that the scientific name of a plant consists of two names: (1) the genus or generic name, and (2) the specific epithet or species name. There are rules to follow when writing a scientific name. The genus name is always underlined or italicized.
How is the Scientific name written, latin, italicized?
lants, Animals, Protists, Fungi, Archaebacteria, Eubacteria
Names of all The Kingdoms in the six kingdom system?
Euglena

paramecium
name a ciliate?
amoeba
name a sarcodine?
plasmodium
name a sporozoan?
The three basic bacterial shapes are coccus (spherical), bacillus (rod-shaped), and spiral (twisted),
name the three basic shapes of bacteria?
Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya. The first two are all prokaryotic microorganisms, or single-celled organisms whose cells have no nucleus.
name the three domains?
icosahedral, helical virus, bacteriophage
name the three types of viruses we discussed?

river
an example of an organ or bone that appears in different animals, underlining anatomical commonalities demonstrating descent from a common ancestor. In other words, it's when very different animals have bones that appear very similar in form or function and seem to be related.
what are homologous structures?
The seven taxa, or units of biological classification, from largest to smallest, are kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species. The second taxon is called phylum for animals, but for plants, it is called a division.
what are taxa? Largest to smallest
Protozoa, slime molds, unicellular algae
what are the three groups of protist called?
lytic cycle and lysogenic cycle
what are the two life cycles that viruses exhibit?
red

the taxonomic kingdom that includes prokaryotic organisms, which are organisms with cells that do not have a nucleus. Monera breaks down into four bacterial subcategories: Archaebacteria, Acitomycetes, Mycoplasms and Eubacteria.
what is Monera?
A name used by scientists, especially the taxonomic name of an organism that consists of the genus and species. Scientific names usually come from Latin or Greek. An example is Homo sapiens, the scientific name for humans.
what is a Scientific name?
a branching diagram showing the cladistic relationship between a number of species.
what is a cladogram?
the system of nomenclature in which two terms are used to denote a species of living organism, the first one indicating the genus and the second the specific epithet.
what is binomial nomenclature?
when one species adapts in different ways to meet the needs of different environments.
what is morphological divergence?
the branch of science concerned with classification, especially of organisms; systematics.
what is taxonomy?

The monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia
what was Whitaker's five kingdoms system?
Carl Linnaeus, also known after his ennoblement as Carl von Linné, was a Swedish botanist, physician, and zoologist, who formalised the modern system of naming organisms called binomial nomenclature.
who was Carolus Linnaeus?
