Before we begin specific course material we will take a crash course in Latin & Greek prefixes, suffixes & word roots. Student will rotate through 6 learning stations. Activity will culminate in a matching quiz. Based on the website: factmonster latin & greek. See other resources in the Science Literacy Latin & Greek tab. 

 

How to Teach Biology 2

In Biology 2 we will begin with classification of life, then study viruses and the six kingdoms. Remaining time will be spent covering some of what you learned in Biology in greater depth.

I. Review of Evolution & Classification

Brightstorm: http://www.brightstorm.com/science/biology/evolution/darwins-theory-of-evolution/ (6:52)

Darwin's Theory of Evolution states that groups of organisms will undergo genetic changes over time due to the process of natural selection. Darwin's theory says that organisms which are most fit for their environment survive while unfit organisms die, changing the genetics of a species until that species is well adapted for its environment. Variations in a species' genetics that lead to evolution often come from mutations.

Classification Overview (4:26)

In Biology, classification is the way to organize living things based on evolutionary relationships. Traditionally, we organize species into the standard hierarchy of kingdom, phylum, class, order, family and genus.

Cladistics:

Brightstorm Classification

A phylogenetic tree is a branching diagram that shows evolutionary relationships. These trees, often compared to family trees, are constructed using a variety of evidence generally using DNA. In phylogenetic trees, sometimes the lengths of the branches represent time since a group split from each other.

 

Cladistics is the method of classifying organisms into groups called clades. Clades consist of an ancestor organism and all of it's decedents and one branch is the tree of life. Cladograms are diagrams that show relationships within a clade.

Brightstorm Classification

Like the Animal Kingdom, the Plant Kingdom is also a major part of the Linnaean system of classification that includes organisms like trees, bushes and grasses. The plants in this kingdom can be called autotrophs because they perform photosynthesis to provide food for themselves. These organisms also provide oxygen for humans and animals to survive.

Unlike the organisms of the Archaea or Monera Kingdoms, the Animal Kingdom consists of multi-cellular, heterotrophic organisms that feed on other organisms to survive. Some of the characteristics of the animals in this kingdom are being able to develop throughout their lives, move independently and reproducing.

The protist kingdom is a classification that includes a diverse group of eukaryotic organisms. Typically, protists reproduce asexually via mitosis and range from unicellular to multicellular organisms. In the protist kingdom, there are two main groups: protozoa (which are generally heterotrophic) and algae (which are generally autotrophic). Organisms in the protozoa group include things like amoebas, slime molds and paramecium while common organisms in the algae group include green algae, brown algae, diatoms and euglena.

The Fungi Kingdom consists of plant-like organisms with small nuclei such as yeast, bread mold and mushrooms. Many of the organisms in the Fungi Kingdom can cause disease, but some are helpful as they are used to make things like antibiotics and yeast. Most of the organisms in this kingdom are parasitic and receive nutrients from surfaces they live on.

The Bacteria Kingdom, formerly called monera, are single celled prokaryotic organisms. Bacteria encompass two domains: eubacteria and archaea. Eubacteria and archaea have very different cell walls. They are also distinguished by their DNA - the DNA of archaea has histone proteins while that of eubacteria does not.
