  1. 1The binomial naming system includes which of the following?
    1. AClass and species
    2. BClass and Order and species
    3. COrder and species
    4. DGenus and species
  2. 2Use the following diagrams to answer the questions.Using your knowledge of taxonomy, explain the difference between the two classification systems below.Imagen de la pregunta 2
    1. AThe difference between the two different classification systems is that the classification system to the left is in the traditional classification system. Here reptiles such as crocodiles, turtles and snakes were grouped together because of the similarities in their physical traits which traditional classifications relied on because of their lack of technology and information. However, the classification to the right is the modern taxonomy or modern way of classification. As you can see crocodiles are now grouped with birds because they have a more recent common ancestor despite having different physical characteristics. Thus grouping the crocodilians and birds together because of their larger reptile clade.
    2. B...
  3. 3Which word best expresses the following statement: The number and variety of species and ecosystems on Earth
    1. AStructural Diversity
    2. BSpecies
    3. CGenetic Diversity
    4. DMorphology
    5. EBiodiversity
  4. 4Classification initially was limited by scientific technologies. The first systems relied on which of the following identifying traits?
    1. APhysiology
    2. BMorphology
    3. CGenetics
    4. DCommon ancestors
  5. 5Over 10,000 new species are discovered on Earth each year. The following choices represent different ways to understand this statement. Based on the readings and class discussion which of the following is the most reasonable connected idea.
    1. AHuman activity has resulted in a wide variety of ecosystems being developed leading to greater evolutionary change and new species.
    2. BSpecies are constantly being discovered as our ability to understand and identify new species increases with knowledge and technology development.
    3. CHuman activity is constantly changing ecosystems, therefore species are undergoing evolutionary change at increasing pace leading to new species.
    4. DGenetic diversity is increasing and resulting in new species developing as a result of pollution and climate change.
  6. 6When studying diversity of organisms on earth, it becomes apparent that the diversity of living things is….
    1. AEssential for the survival of living organisms on earth.
    2. BNot essential for survival of living organisms but has resulted in a variety of unique organisms
    3. CHas benefited the development of the large number of ecosystems on earth.
    4. DIs the result only of a large number of ecosystems on earth.
  7. 7Several limiting factors lead to the modern system of classification, which of the following most likely FIRST contributed significantly to the change to the new system?
    1. AAs physical characteristics were better understood, such as homologous parts, species were being reclassified and needed to be renamed.
    2. BAs genetics was introduced to the scientific approach to classification species no longer needed to be identified through physical traits and therefore could be re-identified.
    3. CAs biodiversity became a greater area of study, the ecosystem of a species needed to be included in the naming system of the species.
    4. DAs common ancestors replaced physical traits species were re-identified and therefore needed to be renamed.
  8. 8Which of the following ordered lists is correct system of classification used in classical taxonomy.
    1. AKingdom, class, phylum, order, family, genus, species
    2. BKingdom, phylum, class, family, order, genus, species
    3. CGenus, species, Kingdom, family, class order, phylum
    4. DKingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species
  9. 9The two main kingdoms first recognized by the Linnaean classification system are most likely.
    1. AArchae and Eubacteria
    2. BPlants and Protists
    3. CAnimals and Plants
    4. DPlants and Fungi
  10. 10Which word best expresses the following statement: An organism that obtains nutrients by consuming living or dead organisms.
    1. ATaxonomy
    2. BHeterotroph
    3. CEvolutionary Change
    4. DAutotroph
