Levels of Classification • Every living thing is classified into one of six kingdoms.

• Kingdoms are the largest, most general groups.

• All living things in a kingdom are sorted into several phyla (singular, phylum).

• The members of one phylum are more like each other than they are like members of other phyla.

• All living things in a phyla are further sorted in classes.

• Each class includes one or more orders. Orders are separated into families.

• Families are broken into genera (singular, genus).

• And genera are sorted into species.

• A species is a group of organisms that are closely related and can mate to produce fertile offspring.

8

9

Scientific Names • Classifying organism allows scientists to give living organisms scientific names.

• A scientific name is always the same for a specific kind of organism no matter how many common names there might be.

10

Scientific Names: Binomial • Linnaeus simplified the naming of living things by giving each species a two‐part scientific name. For example: Elephas maximus (asian elephant).

• The first part of the name, Elephas, is the genus name.

• The second part, maximus, is the species name.

• No other species has both this genus name and this species name.

• All genus names begin with a capital letter. All species names begin with a lowercase letter. Usually, both words, are underlined or italicized.

• Scientific names, usually in latin or greek, contain information about an organism. Example: Tyranosaurus rex, Felis domesticus, etc.
