Hierarchy of Classification

• Monocotyleden plants


  • Grass, maize, sugarcane
• Cold-blooded animals cannot generate their own body temperature
• Insects have a body divided into three parts, have one pair of antennae, most have compound eyes
• Dicotyleden plants


  • Hibiscus, balsam, angsana, mango, papaya tree
• Arachnids


  • Spider, tick, scorpion
• Ferns

  • Are spore producing plants
  • Have roots, leaves, do not produce flowers
  • Reproduce via spores
• Arthropods are divided into four main groups: insects, crustaceans, myriapods, arachnids
• Crustaceans


  • Shrimp, lobster, crab
• Insects


  • Butterfly, moth, grasshopper
• Warm-blooded animals can regulate their body temperature and do not need to depend on the environment to regulate their body temperature
• Arachnids have a body divided into two parts, have four pairs of legs, have simple eyes, have antennae
• Plants are divided into two categories: flowering plants (angiosperms), and ferns
• Arachnids


  • Spiders, mites
• Crustaceans


  • Shrimp, lobster, crab
• Arachnids


  Including spiders, mites, scorpions
• Cnidarians include jellyfish
• Fish


  Live underwater, breathe through gills, have scales, fins help them move
• Mammals

  Warm-blooded, body covered with fur/hair, toothless beaks, born alive from mothers
• Mollusks have shells (e.g., snails)
• Insects

  Have a body, most have compound eyes, most have wings to fly
• Reptiles


  The longest lived species, cold-blooded, born from eggs, body covered with scales or shell. cannot chew, born from eggs and live on the ground or in the water
• Echinoderms can grow from cut parts (e.g., starfish)
• Vertebrates have backbones
• Myriapods

  Have many legs, with 1/2 pairs on each body segment
• Arthropods have many legs (e.g., insects)
• Amphibians, fish, reptiles, birds, and mammals are vertebrates
• Myriapods


  • Centipede, millipede
• Worms are legless
• Birds

  Body covered with feathers, have wings to fly, born from eggs
• Invertebrates do not have backbones
• Amphibians

  Thin and humid skin, transformation throughout their life cycle, breathe through lungs or skin, born from eggs, cold-blooded
• Vertebrates include mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish
• Crustaceans

  Mainly aquatic and often have two pairs of antennae, generate their own body temperature, most have compound eyes
