Semester Exam Part 2 Flashcards
As a general rule organisms which are similar in structure in which can mate and produce fertile offspring are known as
Species
Organism are said to migrate when they
Move from one area to another
Biological keys are used to
Identify organisms
Aristotle’s classification system was
An artificial system of classification
In the Linnaean system of classification, divisions of a phylum are
Classes
An organism
Can adapt to changing his behaviors when in new environment
Kingdoms has heterotrophic members only
Fungi
Which of the following kingdoms contains multicellular organisms with tissues and organs
Animalia
Which of the following is one of the criteria necessary for correct use of biological key
All of these
Carolus Linnaeus did his work in the
18th century A.D.
Classify an organism is to
Assign it to a Scientific group
Acer rebrum and acer saccarinum are usually not found going together. The red Maple grows best in acidic soil and the sugar maple in alkaline soil. A scientist in a special special laboratory where he could control the pH of the soil was able to go hybrids are these two points. This would indicate that the acer rebrum and Acer saccarinum are probably
Members of different species
Binomial nomenclature is a method of
Naming organisms
After careful observation a scientist noted that the cells he was observing a lacked organize nuclei. He knew that
He still needed more evidence be able to tell which kingdom the organisms belonged.
Poodle is
A variety of dog
Which of the scientific names is written correctly
Rama pipiens
In one new England bay a group of crabs found and assigned to a particular species. In another bay, a slightly larger and slightly different colored group of crabs found in classified as a variety of the first group of crabs. Later scientist tried to cross the street groups are crabs but cannot obtain offspring. These two groups of crabs probably are
Ecotypes
An ecotype is
Division of a species which appear similar but has some genetic differences
To the following is not a reason that Latin was chosen for naming organisms
It was the native language of Linnaeus
The branch of biology dealing with the classification of organisms into groups is called
Taxonomy
I dog that lives in the house are your house within a code in the winter than a dog that was outside this is an example of
Adaptation
Pouched mammals such as a kangaroo found in Australia and almost nowhere else. This is probably an example of
Migration
Scientific name of an organism identifies
It’s genus and it’s species
A domain is a taxonomic level that
Is above a kingdom
