ESSENTIAL IDEA:
Species are named and classified using an internationally agreed system.
ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS:
How do binomial system names help scientists to collaborate across the world?
How are living organisms classified? Into what groups?
What are the benefits of classifying living things?
UNDERSTANDINGS / APPLICATIONS / SKILLS / NATURE OF SCIENCE
5.3.U3: Taxonomists classify species using a hierarchy of taxa.
5.3.U4: All organisms are classified into three domains.
5.3.U5: The principal taxa for classifying eukaryotes are kingdom, phylum, class, order, family and genus and species.
5.3.U2: When species are discovered they are given scientific names using the binomial system.
5.3.U1: The binomial system of names for species is universal among biologists and has been agreed and developed at a series of congresses.
5.3.NOS: Cooperation and collaboration between groups of scientists- scientists use the binomial system to identify a species rather than the many different local names.
5.3.A2: Recognition features of bryophyte, filicinophyta, coniferophyta, and angiospermophyta.
5.3.A3: Recognition features of porifera, cnidarian pletyhelmintha, annelida, Mollusca, arthropoda and chordata.
5.3.A4: Recognition of features of birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles and fish.
5.3.A1: Classification of one plant and one animal species from domain to species level.
5.3.S1: Construction of dichotomous keys for use in identifying specimens.
5.3.U6: In a natural classification, the genus and accompanying higher taxa consist of all the species that have evolved from one common ancestral species.
5.3.U8: Natural classification helps in identification of species and allows the prediction of characteristics shared by species within a group.
5.3.U7: Taxonomists sometimes reclassify groups of species when new evidence shows that a previous taxon contains species that have evolved from different ancestral species.
