Classification
• Over 2 million species of organisms have been found and named
• Thousands of new species are being discovered each year
• There may be as many as 50 million species left to find (or more)!

Taxonomy1. Putting organisms
in groups (taxons) based on their characteristics
2. Naming organisms

Aristotle’s SystemAristotle was the 1st to do detailed work on
classification. He divided animals into two groups:– Animals with blood
• Mammals• Birds• Reptiles• fish
– Animals without blood• Insects • worms

LinnaeusCame up with:• a system to NAME organisms
• A system to CLASSIFY organisms (place into groups)
• Based his groups on morphology
• Each group called a taxon

• System of naming organisms
• Each organism is given a two part name
Genus species

Modern System
• Very similar to Linnaeus
• Based on supposed evolutionary relationships – (phylogeny) not just physical similarities
• Cladograms show these relationships

All living organisms are now classified into one of 6 kingdoms:
Kingdom Archae-

6 kingdoms
All living things fall into 1 of these 6 kingdoms
