Taxons
What level of classification is most closely related?Phylum, Class, Family, or Genus
Genus is most closely related
Phylum is least related
What is one difference in Archaea and Eubacteria? Extra 50 if you get BOTH!
Environment: arch=extreme eu=normal
Cell wall: eu=peptidoglycan
What Kingdom?
Eukaryotic, multicellular, autotrophic, cell wall made of cellulose, chloroplasts, performs photosynthesis
Plantae
Organism that has a backbone or spinal column
Vertebrate
Naming system used in taxonomy (Genus species)
Binomial nomenclature
Which of the following organisms would be most closely related to a lion? Panthera tigris, Felus catus, Puma concolor, or Canus lupus
Panthera tigris, as it is in the same genus
Kingdom Fungi and Animalia are very similar in characteristics. What are two major characteristics that can help you distinguish the correct kingdom?

Fungi
Able to divide into separate halves along one plane
Bilateral symmetry
Organisms that do not have a backbone
invertebrate
