                                                                                          "Organizing Life's Diversity"                                                                                         

A) Use these words to answer the following questions: (binomial nomenclature, class, classification, division, domain, family, genus, kingdom, order, phylum, taxon, taxonomy.)

   1) system of naming species using two words:
   2) taxon of closely related species that share a recent common ancestor:
   3) branch of biology that groups and names species based on studies of their different characteristics:     

4) on what did Linnaeus base his classification?
     a) derived characters b) binomial nomenclature c) morphology and habitat d) evolutionary relationship

5) Short answer: Explain the rules and uses of binomial nomenclature.

6) Which taxon contains one or more kingdom?
       a) genus b) phylum c) family d) domain

 Use these words to fill in the blanks:( Archaea, Eubacteria, fungus, Protist)

7) The cell walls of ..................... contain peptidoglycan.

8) .......................... are called extremophiles because they grow in extreme environment.

9) Some types of........................... ..... are used to make food products like bread and cheese.

10) 13) In which would prokaryotes found living acid runoff of sulfur vents of volcanoes likely be classified?
       a) Bacteria b) Archaea c) Eubacteria d) Protista
 
11) Which substances would most likely be in the cells walls of an organism with chloroplasts and tissues?
       a) peptidoglycan b) chitin c) hyphae d) cellulose

12) Open Ended: Two scientists produce two different cladograms for the same group of organisms. Explain how the differences are possible.
 
13) Short Answer: describe how to make a cladogram. include the types of characters that are used and the judgments you must make about the characters.

14) Short Answer: Summarize how biochemical characters can be used to determine phylogeny.

15) Short Answer: Predict in which domain a taxonomist would place a newly discovered photosynthetic organism that has cells without membrane- bound  organelles and no peptidoglycan.

16) Short Answer: Write an argument for or against including Eubacteria and Archaea in the same domain. How would this affect the phylogenetic tree of life?           

17) Very Short Answer: Describe how the changing species concept has affected classification systems.

18) Very Short Answer: List and describe the different concepts of a species.

19) Very Short Answer: Describe some methods used to determine phylogeny?

20) Very Short Answer: Organize the following derived characters on a cladogram in order of ascending complexity: multicellular, hair, backbone, unicellular, and four appendages.
