Genus- Group of closely related species; the first part of the scientific name in binomial nomenclature.

2. Systematics- The study of the diversity of life and the evolutionary relationships between organisms.

3. Taxon- Group or level of an organization into which organisms are classified.

4. Class- In classification, a group of closely related orders.

5. Phylum- In classification, a group of closely related classes.

6. Kingdom- Largest and most inclusive group in Linnaean Classification.

7. Binomial Nomenclature- Classification system in which each species is assigned a two-part scientific name.

8. Phylogeny- Evolutionary branch of a cladogram that includes a single ancestor and all its descendants.

9. Domain- Larger, more inclusive taxonomic category than a kingdom.

10. Cladogram- diagram depicting patterns of shared characteristics among species.]]> 2023-05-15 16:21:31 UTC https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2591588863 2025schrecengostm https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2591589848 * In binomial nomenclature, each species is assigned a two-part scientific name

* The goals of systematics is to organize living things into groups that have biological meaning

* A cladogram links groups of organisms by showing how evolutionary lines, or lineages, branched off from common ancestors 

* In general, the more derived genetic characters two species share, the more recently they shared a common ancestor and the more closely they are related in evolutionary terms]]> 2023-05-15 16:22:18 UTC https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2591589848 2025schrecengostm https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2591590188 * What are the six kingdoms?
-Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia

* What is the goal of evolutionary classification?
- The goal of phylogenetic systematics, or evolutionary classification, is to group species into larger categories that reflect line of evolutionary descent, rather than overall similarities and differences 

* What is a cladogram?
-A cladogram links groups of organisms by showing how evolutionary lines, or lineages, branched off from common ancestors

*  How are DNA sequences used in classification?
-In general, the more derived genetic characters two speices share, the more recently they shared a common ancestor and the more closely they are related in evolutionary terms ]]> 2023-05-15 16:22:26 UTC https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2591590188 2025schrecengostm https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2591590315 * Classification of organisms is important because it helps us understand the diversity of life in a structured and organized way. It allows us to group organisms according to their evolutionary relationships, which in turn helps us identify patterns and make predictions about characteristics and behaviors of different organisms. Additionally, classification provides a common language for scientist to communicate with one another about living organisms ]]> 2023-05-15 16:22:33 UTC https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2591590315 2025schrecengostm https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2591590482 2023-05-15 16:22:40 UTC https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2591590482 2025schrecengostm https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594638503 2023-05-17 12:18:29 UTC https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594638503 2025schrecengostm https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594639119 2023-05-17 12:19:02 UTC https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594639119 2025schrecengostm https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594640409 2023-05-17 12:20:12 UTC https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594640409 2025schrecengostm https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594640765 2023-05-17 12:20:34 UTC https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594640765 2025schrecengostm https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594640992 2023-05-17 12:20:44 UTC https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594640992 2025schrecengostm https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594641333 2023-05-17 12:20:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594641333 2025schrecengostm https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594641878 2023-05-17 12:21:31 UTC https://padlet.com/2025schrecengostm/pp7c2k96hj18fvfg/wish/2594641878
