Taxonomy - Organisms are grouped based on common characteristics.
Learning Goals:
Describe the principles of taxonomy
Use the kingdom system of classification, taxons, binomial nomenclature
List characteristics of the 6 kingdoms: Archaea/Archaebacteria, Bacteria/Eubacteria, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia
Use classification keys
Schedule 2024
