FIVE KINGDOM CLASSIFICATION Biological System of Classification • Organisms are first divided into a few kingdoms • Phylum or division is made up of several classes • Classes are made up of orders • Within each order there is a family • Each family consists of a varying number of genus • A genus usually has several species. Organisms within the species can breed PROCARYOTAE KINGDOM Prokaryote • Also called as bacteria‚ these as believed to be the most abundant

Digestive Systems in Different Animals Different species of animals have different digestive systems which are adapted to their unique requirements. The type of food‚ method of food gathering and energy needs are some factors that influence the type of digestive system an animal needs in order to survive. Herbivores have a more specialised digestive system than that of a carnivore because it is more difficult to digest vegetation than meat. The teeth are flat so that grass and plant material can

The Horseshoe Crab‚ scientifically named Limulus Polyphemus‚ is an ancient creature that not many people know much about. The Horseshoe Crab is part of the Limulidae family‚ which is the marine arthropods. The Horseshoe Crab’s closest relatives are Trilobites back from the Paleozoic which is coincidently when the Horseshoe crab first began to develop. (Reference 2) In modern times the Horseshoe crab is not labelled as a crustacean despite its name. The Horseshoe Crab is closely related chelicerates

Samantha Rogers & Sarah Grill July 6‚ 2015 Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine Analyzing the Effects of PZQ on Planarian Head Regeneration Abstract This paper focuses on the question of whether or not the drug PZQ (Praziquantel) has an effect on the double-headed formation of planarians. As the rest of the report will describe in more detail‚ we used multiple concentrations of PZQ reconstituted in 95% ethanol to observe its effects on planarians cut in a shape that promoted double headed

James Sutton Excelsior Student Cynthia Jackson THE KINGDOMS OF LIFE Introduction: On our planet earth we have what are called kingdoms‚ 5 to be exact‚ consisting of a very diverse group of living things. Using these five kingdoms we classify our species and organize information on what we are and what resides with us. When we place every living creature into one of the five kingdoms it better helps us understand the world around us and it ’s habitants. The five kingdoms include:

Organisms that aren’t food producers must be food consumers. This method of nutrition is described as heterotrophic (eating others). Consumers include: predators‚ parasites‚ scavengers‚ decomposers and some green plants (e.g. sundews‚ Venus flytrap‚ pitcher plants). The food sources may be all or any of: plants‚ animals‚ fungi or bacteria; either living or dead. The advantages of the heterotrophic method of nutrition are: the food usually contains all the appropriate chemicals needed by

What is the job of the Circulatory System? The Circulatory System is responsible for transporting materials throughout the entire body. It transports nutrients‚ water‚ and oxygen to your billions of body cells and carries away wastes such as carbon dioxide that body cells produce. It is an amazing highway that travels through your entire body connecting all your body cells. Parts of the Circulatory System The circulatory System is divided into three major parts: 1. The Heart 2. The

Mollusks Page 1 Mollusks comprise a group of soft-bodied animals that includes snails‚ clams‚ and sea slugs. The most common characteristic of most mollusks is their shell. One of the largest groups‚ the snails‚ is renowned for their shells. Snails are univalves‚ which means they have one shell. And it is this shell that for many people is the epitome of the ocean. There is perhaps no other ocean treasure that displays more diversity and beauty than the shell. Conchology‚ the study and collection
