WHAT IS CLASSIFICATION?S C SS C O ?

Anything which is grouped into convenient y g g pcategory based on easily observablecharacters.

Arrangement of organized information onthe basis of similarities.


WHAT IS BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION?

It is the systematic grouping of organisms.y g p g gIt is also called biosystematics.

Biosystematics deals with the identification,nomenclature & classification of organisms based on their similarities & differences.


DIFFERENT SYSTEMS OF CLASSIFICATIONDIFFERENT SYSTEMS OF CLASSIFICATION

1) ARTIFICIAL SYSTEMS1) ARTIFICIAL SYSTEMS2) NATURAL SYSTEMS3) PHYLOGENETIC SYSTEMS (CLADISTICS)3) ( )


1. ARTIFICIAL SYSTEMS:

It is a system of classification based on oneor two easily recognizable characters.or two easily recognizable characters.Example: Theophrastus (370‐300 BC)classified plants into:p• Trees• Shrubs• Undershrubs• Herbs


Example 2:pAristotle (384‐322 BC) classified animalsinto:• Enaima (Animals with red blood)• Anaima (Animals without red blood)• Ovipary (Egg laying)• Vivipary (Giving birth to young ones)


2 NATURAL SYSTEM OF CLASSIFICATION2. NATURAL SYSTEM OF CLASSIFICATION

It is a system of classification based onIt is a system of classification based onnatural similarities of vegetative & floralcharacterscharacters.Example: George Bentham & Joseph DaltonHooker classified plants into:Hooker classified plants into:• Cryptogams (non flowering plants)• Phanerogams (seed bearing plants)

Vikasana – Bridge Course 2012Phanerogams (seed bearing plants)

3. PHYLOGENETIC SYSTEM (CLADISTICS)

It is a system of classification based onevolutionary & genetic relationship oforganisms in addition to natural characters.Example: Adolf Engler & Karl PrantleExample: Adolf Engler & Karl Prantleclassified bacteria & all plants under 14divisions. The 14th divisions is Embryophytadivisions. The 14 divisions is Embryophytasiphanogama that includes gymnosperms &angiosperms.

KINGDOM SYSTEMS OF CLASSIFICATION

TWO KINGDOM SYSTEM: (CAROLUS LINNAEUS 1758)(CAROLUS LINNAEUS‐1758)

• KINGDOM PLANTAE: It includes Bacteria,Mycoplasma fungi & photosynthetic plantsMycoplasma, fungi & photosynthetic plants.

• KINGDOM ANIMALIA: It includes• KINGDOM ANIMALIA: It includesunicellular & multicellular animals.


THREE KINGDOM SYSTEM:(ERNEST HAECKEL‐1866)(ERNEST HAECKEL 1866)

• KINGDOM PROTISTA: It includesunicellular & colonial eukaryotes such asybacteria, algae, fungi & protozoans.• KINGDOM PLANTAE: It includesmulticellular photosynthetic plants.• KINGDOM ANIMALIA: It includesmulticellular animals.


FOUR KINGDOM SYSTEM:(COPELAND‐1956)(COPELAND 1956)

• KINGDOM MONERA: It includes unicellular or filamentous prokaryotes such as Bacteria,

l & b t imycoplasma & cyanobacteria.• KINGDOM PROTISTA: It includes unicellular eukaryotes.y

• KINGDOM PLANTAE: Multicellular autotrophic eukaryotes

• KINGDOM ANIMALIA: Multicellular heterotrophic eukaryotes


FIVE KINGDOM SYSTEM:(R H WHITTAKER‐1969)

Classification based on:• Complexity of cell structure ‐ prokaryote or eukaryote

• Complexity of organisms body –unicellular or multicellular

• Mode of nutrition –Autotrophic or Heterotrophic


• Major ecological role – Producer, Consumer, j g , ,Decomposer

• Phylogenetic relationship – simple to complex


PROKARYOTE:• Incipient nucleus

EUKARYOTE:• True nucleus• Incipient nucleus

• nucleoid has only DNA• May have plasmid

• True nucleus• Chromatin has DNA & histonesMay have plasmid

• Absence of membrane bound cell organelles

• plasmid absent• Presence of membrane g

• 70S ribosomesExample: Bacteria,

bound cell organelles• 70S & 80S ribosomes p

Nostoc, Mycoplasma. presentExample: Higher plants & animals
