Order
Class
Kingdom

7
Which list correctly identifies characteristics that protists share with animals?
motile, multi cellular, photosynthetic
Eukaryotic, motile, reproduce sexually
Motile, Reproduce Sexually, photosynthestic
motile, prokaryotic, multicellular
8
What is the difference between Kingdom Plantae and Kingdom Fungi?
Plants are nonphotosynthetic; Fungi is photosynthetic
Plants are motile; Fungi nonmotile
Plants are autotrophic; Fungi heterotrophic
Plants have no nucleus; Fungi has nucleus
9
What do Protists, Fungi, Plants, and Animals have in common?
They are all eukaryotes.
They are all photosynthetic.
They are all prokaryotes.
They are all multicellular.
10
If two organisms belong to the same phylum they must also belong to the same what?
Class
Family
Species
Kingdom
11
What is the organims on the picture?
Prokaryote, because does not have a distinct membrane-bound nucleus.
Eukaryote, because the organism is unicellular and has a nucleus.
Prokaryote, because it has plasma membrane, genetic material, and ribosomes
Prokaryote, because it has organelles similar to those in eukaryotes
12

14
Which one is correctly written in binomial nomenclature?
Human species
Domain and kingdom
Homo Sapiens

15
What is the advantages of having a universal naming system?
Latin is the language most frequently spoken in the world
the common name is hard too translate
because the common name doesn't addresss its habitat or location
the same organism can be recognized everywhere and avoid translation issues

order and family
phylum and class
genus and species
domain and kingdom
19
Why do taxonomists sometimes change the system of classification?
Classification assumes that species are distinct and unchanging
Use of common names to identify organisms can be confusing
Taxonomy organizes living things into similar groups to easier study
New information about structure and DNA of an organism is found
20
Although these organisms belong to the same phylum, they are classified as different-
kingdoms
species
order
families
