    Study Notes

    Biology EOT Review

    • Classification:

      • This is the grouping of organisms in order to identify them.
      • The science of classifying organisms is called taxonomy.

    • Taxonomy:

      • Organisms can be classified into 3 domains.
        • Bacteria - Similar to eubacteria
        • Archaea
        • Eukaryota - Plants, Animals, Fungi, Protists

    • Organisms can be grouped into kingdoms

      • There are 5 kingdoms.
        • Prokaryotae
        • Protista
        • Fungi
        • Plantae
        • Animalia

    Characteristics of Life (CRIMMER)

    • C- Growth: An increase in size or mass.
    • R- Respiration: The release of energy from food.
    • I- Irritability: Response to stimuli (e.g., taste).
    • M- Movement: A change in body position.
    • M- Metabolism: Chemical reactions enabling life processes
    • N- Nutrition: Feeding/taking in nutrients
    • E- Excretion: Removal of waste (sweating, urine, excreting).
    • R- Reproduction: Production of offspring.
