Figure 1.7 Taxonomic classification of five species that are related at different levels.

Each species has been assigned to ever more inclusive groups, or taxa: in this case, from genus to domain.

Summary Introduction

Taxonomy involves the identification of different organisms, classification of the identified organisms into categories, and naming them. The organisms are classified into different groups along with other similar organisms. Eight different taxonomic categories are there, namely domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species.

Explanation of Solution

An order is a taxonomic rank that is used for classifying organisms. Order is more specific when compared to class, a taxonomic rank above the order. The plants given in the figure are wild carrot, marijuana, prickly rose, apple, and dog rose. Among the given flowers, marijuana, apple, dog rose, and prickly rose belongs to the same order Rosales.

Which scientific name below is correctly written and follows all the rules of binomial nomenclature? NSome of the answer choices for this question are in italics and others are not. I've heard that the italics is not showing up on some devices. I've written whether or not the scientific name is in italics in parentheses after each answer choice. Please use this information when deciding which answer choice is correct! O Felis Catus (This is in italics.) O felis catus (This is in italics.) felis catus (This is not in italics.) Felis catus (This is not in italics.) O Felis catus (This is in italics.)
Directions: For the following organisms below, you are to sort them into at least 4 different groupings. There must be at least 2 organisms in a grouping. You may place them into columns (in a chart of some sort) or simply Number or your groups and list the organism that are included. ALSO, you must include a written description (at least 2 sentences) describing the characteristics of EACH GROUP that apply to all organisms within that group.   Hint** A quick google search, or image search may provide you the visual data you need to categorize the organisms.   Sponges (Porifera) Cnidarians (Cnidaria) Comb jellies (Ctenophora) Flatworms (Platyhelminthes) Ribbon worms (Nemertea) Nematodes (Nematoda) Arrow worms (Chaetognatha) Segmented worms (Annelida) Sipunculans (Sipuncula) Molluscs (Mollusca) Arthropods (Arthropoda) Bryozoans (Bryozoa) Phoronids (Phoronida) Lamp shells (Brachiopoda) Echinoderms (Echinodermata) Hemichordates (Hemichordata) Chordates (Chordata)
With the given name/s or situation, identify the appropriate rule or  principle that must be or was considered.   Choices:  Principle of binomial nomenclature, principle of priority, principle of coordination, principle of the first reviser, principle of homonymy, principle of typification When Rattus as a genus name was established, its species name, Rattus  norvegicus was also automatically established.  Noctua Linnæus, 1758 (Lepidoptera) and Noctua Gmelin (Sauropsida)  Limax maculatus was established in 1837 by Nunneley. However, it was  found that Wiktor has already established Limax maximus (Gastropoda)  in 1758. Since L. maximus was the senior synonym, it takes precedence  over L. maculatus and it was used for the species.   The species name of giraffe is Giraffa camelopardalis.
