Understandings, applications, and skills
5.3.U1 The binomial system of names for species is universal among biologists and has been agreed and developed at a series of congresses.
5.3.U2 When species are discovered they are given scientific names using the binomial system.
5.3.U3 Taxonomists classify species using a hierarchy of taxa.
5.3.U4 All organisms are classified into three domains. [Archaea, eubacteria and eukaryote should be used for the three domains. Members of these domains should be referred to as archaeans, bacteria and eukaryotes. Viruses are not classified as living organisms.]
5.3.U5 The principal taxa for classifying eukaryotes are kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species.
5.3.U6 In a natural classification, the genus and accompanying higher taxa consist of all the species that have evolved from one common ancestral species.
5.3.U7 Taxonomists sometimes reclassify groups of species when new evidence shows that a previous taxon contains species that have evolved from different ancestral species.
5.3.U8 Natural classifications help in identification of species and allow the prediction of characteristics shared by species within a group.
5.3.A1 Classification of one plant and one animal species from domain to species level.
5.3.A2 Recognition features of bryophyta, filicinophyta, coniferophyta and angiospermophyta. [Students should know which plant phyla have vascular tissue, but other internal details are not required.]
5.3.A3 Recognition features of porifera, cnidaria, platylhelmintha, annelida, mollusca, arthropoda and chordata. [Recognition features expected for the selected animal phyla are those that are most useful in distinguishing the groups from each other and full descriptions of the characteristics of each phylum are not needed.]
5.3.A4 Recognition of features of birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles and fish.
5.3.S1 Construction of dichotomous keys for use in identifying specimens.
