Define Classification
The process of naming and organising organisms into groups based on their characteristics
What are the 8 groups of classification
Domain
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species
What are the two compartments to the binomial name
Generic name
Specific name
What is the advantage of using binomal name
It is universal same everywhere
What are the 5 kingdoms
Prokaryote
Protoctista
Fungi
Animalia
Plante
What are the three domains
Archea
Bacteria
Eukaryota
How are organisms classed in their kingdoms
Based on similar characteristics
How was the domain system of classification developed
By analysing the molecular differences between organisms to determine the evolutionary relationships
What is the difference between classification and phylogeny
Classification is sorting organisms into groups
Phylogeny investigates the evolutionary relationships
Explain how natural selection worked
4 points
Random mutation
Advantageous characteristics
Reproduce
Pass on allele to offspring
How did wallace and darwin contribute to the theory of evolution
The finches had different characteristics depending on their environment passed onto offspring
3 types of evidence for the theory of evolution
Fossils
Genomic Dna
Molecular
What causes variation
Genetic
Environment
What is intraspecific evolution
Variation within the same species
What is interspecific
Variation within different species
What is continuous variation
Variation exists gradual changes over a range
What is discontinous
Variation exists in distinct characteristics
3 features of variation
Anatomical
Behavioural
