Who is Carolus Linnaeus?
This is the Kingdom that includes both humans and grizzly bears.
What is Kingdom Animalia?
This tool uses a series of paired statements to identify organisms.
What is a dichotomous key?
This kingdom includes organisms like mushrooms and yeast that are heterotrophic and have cell walls made of chitin.
What is Kingdom Fungi?
This kingdom includes organisms that are eukaryotic, multicellular, and heterotrophic, but do not have cell walls.
What is Kingdom Animalia?
This is the branch of biology that classifies organisms and assigns each a universally accepted name.
What is taxonomy?
In binomial nomenclature, the first word is the genus and the second is this.
What is the species?
This is the most general level in the classification system.
What is Domain?
These organisms are eukaryotic, multicellular, autotrophic, and have cell walls made of cellulose.
What is Kingdom Plantae?
These bacteria thrive in extreme environments like hydrothermal vents.
What is Archaebacteria?
This is the correct order of the eight levels of classification from most general to most specific.
What is Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species?

This group of animals lacks a backbone.
What are invertebrates?
Each step in a dichotomous key presents this many choices.
What is two?
This is the main limitation of Linnaeus’ classification system.
What is it only uses physical traits?
This level of classification comes directly after Class.
What is Order?
This kingdom includes organisms that reproduce using spores and structures like asci or club-shaped fruiting bodies.
What is Kingdom Fungi?
This is the most specific level of classification.
What is species?
This taxonomic level comes directly before genus.
What is family?
These are traits that appear in recent parts of a lineage but not in its older members.
What are derived characters?
This mnemonic helps students remember the order of classification levels.
What is “Dear King Philip Came Over For Good Soup”?
This is the key difference between the cell walls of Eubacteria and Archaebacteria.
What is Eubacteria have peptidoglycan in their cell walls, Archaebacteria do not?
This is the domain that includes all eukaryotic organisms.
What is Eukarya?
This kingdom includes both autotrophs and heterotrophs and can reproduce both sexually and asexually.
What is Kingdom Protista?
