HOMEWORK
AGENDA
• Read section 18-3
• Classification
(Kingdoms and
presentations
Domains). Use this
information, along with
your notes, to complete
the graphic organizer
Bacteria Domain

Prokaryotic cells

Unicellular

Most are heterotrophs, some
can be autotrophs

Contains Kingdom Eubacteria

Can reproduce asexually or
after exchanging genetic
information
OBJECTIVES

Describe the defining characteristics of each main category of life.
Sulfolobus Acidocaldarius
Belongs to the Archea domain
 Is neither prokaryotic or eukaryotic
 Is a Unicellular organism
 Can grow heterotrophically or
autotrophically
 Can grow by lithoautotrophically
oxidizing Sulfur or
chemoheterotrophically using sulfur to
oxidize simple reduced carbon
compounds

 Abundant in sulfur filled hot acid springs in
Yellowstone National Park
 Sulfolobus Tokodaii and Sulfolobus Islandicus
are other members of the genus

OBJECTIVES

Describe the defining characteristics of each main category of life.
Eukaryote Domain

Very diverse

Only commonality is
cells contain a
nucleus

Unicellular or
multicellular

Includes 4 kingdoms
OBJECTIVES

Describe the defining characteristics of each main category of life.
Plant Kingdom
By: Samantha, Victoria, and Nia
OBJECTIVES

Describe the defining characteristics of each main category of life.
Amanita Muscaria is a deadly mushroom
 It is also a multicellular organism which means it
contains more than one cell
 Amanita is eukaryotic which means it gets food
from its surroundings
 They soak up nutrients that is inside of the soil
they live in.
 A picture of amanita muscaria

OBJECTIVES

Describe the defining characteristics of each main category of life.
It can be located in north America it is usually
found to look orange, red, and purple with white
spots it grows in the woods and on the ground.
They also have warts on the top layer.
 The fruiting body of a amanita can grow as tall
as 25 cm and forms a cap as long as 20cm in
diameter.
 Amanita is part of the fungi kingdom its Latin
binomial is actually Amanita Muscaria.
 Different type of fungi

OBJECTIVES

Describe the defining characteristics of each main category of life.
 Amanita
belongs to many categories which
are Kingdom: Fungi Phylum: Basidiomycota
Class: Agaricomycetes Order: Agaricales
Family: Amanitaceae Genus: Amanita
Species: A. muscaria
 This organism doesn’t seem to interact with
animals because of its deadly aspect of life.
 Species relating to them are cothurnata and
gemmata
 Flat top amanita
OBJECTIVES

Describe the defining characteristics of each main category of life.
Domain/Kingdom: Protists
Examples of protists: freshwater
ciliates, radiolarians, and
spirogyra
OBJECTIVES
• Describe the defining characteristics of each main category of life.
Made Of Cells
• Protists are Eukaryotic
• Protists are a group of mainly single celled
eukaryotes
• Protist Are Multicellular and Unicellular
• Few protists actually have hundreds or even
thousands of cells
OBJECTIVES
• Describe the defining characteristics of each main category of life.
Reproducing
• Protist reproduce sexually and asexually
• They produce asexually by splitting in two
DNA
Protist keep all their DNA inside their nucleus
 All the information is stored as a code of four
chemical bases known as Adenine, Guanine,
Cytosine, and Thymine


How does black mambas get
food?
 They use Jacobson's organ(an internal organ
that allows snakes to locate their food by
“smelling” it or their “belly” scales to pinpoint
their meal using the prey’s ulbrations
(movements). Once the prey is found, the
snake for a “s” and strikes its meal and injects
the venom.

OBJECTIVES
Explain how a new species is placed into the appropriate categories.
Follow a dichotomous key in order to classify a species.
Plants
Animals
Dichotomous keys!

A method to classify organisms based upon
physical traits

Series of paired statements that are opposites

Ultimately results in the identification of the
organism in question
OBJECTIVES
Explain how a new species is placed into the appropriate categories.
Follow a dichotomous key in order to classify a species.
Dichotomous keys!

Everybody take off 1 shoe and place it on the
kidney table (That’s right. I went there.)

Take 1 minute to silently write all possible
traits that can be used to classify the shoes
(e.g. laces, flats, patterns, etc)

Take 2 minutes to discuss with your elbow
partner the traits you brainstormed
OBJECTIVES
Explain how a new species is placed into the appropriate categories.
Follow a dichotomous key in order to classify a species.
Dichotomous keys!

Why do you think it’s important that the
paired statements are opposites?

Which types of traits do you think should
appear first in a dichotomous key?
OBJECTIVES
Explain how a new species is placed into the appropriate categories.
Follow a dichotomous key in order to classify a species.
Dichotomous keys!

More practice…
◦ Individually, or with a partner, you will be able to
classify leaf samples by following a dichotomous key
◦ Turn to page 462-463
◦ Classify the leaves pictured by following the key on
the left
◦ I will draw samples for any potentially unknown
vocabulary on the board
◦ This sheet will be collected as classwork!

DO NOW
Why is the hierarchy of
classification (DKPCOFGS)
more useful than the previous
system of describing the
species?
 Describe what a dichotomous
key is.

OBJECTIVES
 Identify an unknown
species based upon a
dichotomous key
HOMEWORK
AGENDA
Create a study guide
• Follow dichotomous
sheet to use during a
keys!
review game tomorrow
(game is 2nd half of class)
How to classify Domain:
1.
Is the DNA contained in a nucleus?
a) If YES  Domain Eukarya
b) If NO  proceed to question 2
2.
Are these organisms extremophiles?
a. If YES  Domain Archaea
b. If NO  Domain Bacteria
Scientists do this type of process for
EACH LEVEL of DKPCOFGS
Dichotomous keys!

More practice…
◦ Individually, or with a partner, you will be able to
classify Norn and shark species based upon the
table of statements provided.
◦ These two sheets will be collected as classwork!
◦ If you finish early…
 Read, do homework, or silently ponder and reflect upon
the meaning of life.

Topics: Classification of Life
DO NOW:
OBJECTIVES
Before fully reading Prompt 1,

what do you think the question is
about? What indications did you
have?
 Read the entire Prompt 1.

Underline what you believe are
key verbs, and circle what you
believe are important buzzwords.

HOMEWORK
• STUDY FOR QUEST!
• Characteristics of Life
• Types of cells
• Classification of Life
• Defining traits of each
Domain & Kingdom
Effectively write an
MCAS response about
how to classify a species.
Review what material
you need to focus on
while studying tonight.
AGENDA
• Practice MCAS writing
prompts with Mr. Lerner!
• Review for quest
Brainstorm

With your elbow partner, take 2 minutes to share
what you identified in the Do Now as key verbs and
buzzwords.
◦ KEY VERBS:





◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
Identify
Justify
Describe
Explain
Determine
BUZZWORDS:
Two of the sea lions
Most closely related
Proper Classification
Evidence
Individually…

SILENTLY take 3 minutes to flip through
your notes and jot down (in the margins
of the prompt) any information that you
feel is relevant to answer the question.
Types of Responses:
IDENTIFY (1 sentence tops)
1.
1. Name something!
JUSTIFY (~2-3 sentences)
2.
1. Give a reason for something
3.
◦
◦
◦
DESCRIBE vs. EXPLAIN vs DETERMINE.
(~2/4 sentences)
Describe = give characteristics
Explain = proving why it’s right
Determine = choosing which
Final steps…

Re-organize the notes that you took in
the margin to correspond to which
portion of the prompt it will answer.
◦ For example, all information that is
RELEVANT to part 1 should be separated
from all info for part 2.

AS YOUR EXIT TICKET for 1st period:
◦ Use all these steps to write out a FULL
response to Prompt 1.
GAME TIME!
You have 2 minutes to gather your team of 4
or 5 OTHERWISE I will assign you to a team!
 Each team needs a super cool team name.
 Elect a scribe to put all team answers on the
whiteboard
 I will read each question and your team will
have 1 minute to FIND the answer and
WRITE it on the board.
 At the end of the minute, I will ask every
team to hold up the answer. Each correct
answer = 1 pt

