1 Accelerated Biology Name Classification Project Period Date Due Content Standard 12: All life forms on Earth are organized into a hierarchical classification system to establish structural and evolutionary relationships between the organisms. Animals can be divided into two major groups Vertebrates and Invertebrates. Objective 12: Outline the Linnaean system of classification including kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species as well as the binomial nomenclature of the species name. A. Define the following vocabulary: Taxonomy: binomial nomenclature: genus: species: B. Describe the contribution that Carolus Linneus made to science: C. Come up with your own pneumonic device sentence to remember the correct order of the hierarchical system of classification from largest group to smallest group. (Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species) K P C O F G S D. Use your textbook, other books, or the Internet to correctly categorize yourself. The last two have been filled in for you. Kingdom: Phylum: Class: Order: Family: Genus: Homo Species: sapien

2 Objective 11: Describe the major features of organisms in each of the five Kingdoms. Campbell textbook: pg. 314 or Prentice Hall textbook: pg. 457 Kingdom Photo Two Examples (by name) Two Interesting Facts (sentences) Monera Protista Fungi Plantae Animalia

3 Objective 13: Compare and contrast the varied characteristics of the invertebrate and vertebrate phyla. (Porifera, Cnidaria, Platyhelminthes, Nematoda, Mollusca, Annelida, Arthropoda, Echinodermata, and Chordata) Characteristics should be features that are unique and interesting about each animal example you chose. C textbook: Chapter 18 or PH textbook: Chapters 26, 27, 28, and Unit 9 (pg.765) Phylum Two Characteristics about example (complete sentences) Visual Example & Name Porifera

4 Objective 14: Compare and contrast the varied characteristics of the vertebrate classes. [Agnatha (jawless fish), Chondrichthyes, Osteichthyes (bony fish), Amphibia, Reptilia, Aves, Mammalia] Characteristics should be features that are unique and interesting about each animal example you chose. This could include information you find interesting about their body structure, the way they find their food, where they live, how they attract a mate, how they protect themselves from predators, etc C textbook: pages or PH textbook: , , Chapters 31 and 32 Class Two Characteristics about example (complete sentences) Visual Example & Name Mammalia

5 Last part: Cut out the 75 animal pictures provided on my website. Using the Charting Animal Classification handout, organize the animals from most primitive to most evolved: Invertebrates according to their phylum Vertebrates (Chordata) according to their class The purpose of this activity is to show a progression of more simplistic animals to more complex animals, and to emphasize both continuity (similarities), but also a glimpse of the amazing diversity (differences) in nature. Your project should include a cover page with a title, your name, a related graphic, class, teacher, date, and period. You also need a Resources page at the end, in which you cite any source that you used. This could be a book or the Internet. Example: Biology: Concepts and Connections by Campbell, Reece, Taylor, Simon, and Dickey; pages 314, 382, and ***Be sure to write all facts and information in your own words. Practice your skill of summary. If wording is taken directly from a book or the Internet this is plagiarism and grounds for receiving a zero on this summative project.
