2. Systematics of Living Organisms part 03 - Units of Classification

  2. Systematics of Living Organisms part 03 - Units of Classification Units of Classification : Species : Species is the  principal natural taxonomic unit , ranking below a genus and denoted by  latin binomial  (considered as the basic) unit of classification.  It is a  group of organisms  that can interbreed under natural condition to produce fertile offspring.  It was thought to be an  indivisible, stable and static unit.   However in the modern taxonomy, subdivision of species such as  sub-species, varities and populations  are seen and given more importance. Genus :  Genus is a taxonomic rank or category  larger than species  used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms.  Genus is a  group of species   bearing close resemblance to one another in their morphological characters but they do not interbreed.  e.g.  Tiger, Leopard, Lion  all three belong to same  genus  Panthera.  They have common characters yet are different from each other because their genus i

2. Systematics of Living Organisms - part 04 - Nomenclature

  2. Systematics of Living Organisms - part 04 - Nomenclature Nomenclature : The art of naming the objects is in fact, a science called  nomenclature.  All living organisms are known by a particular name. 1.Vernacular / Local names / Common names:  Widely distributed organisms have a large number of common names.  Pansy (Viola  tricolor  L.)  grown in most European and American gardens has about 50 common English names.  In a multilingual country like India, almost all useful plants have local names which differ from language to language and even from dialect to dialect.  As in Ayurveda,  mango (Mangifera  indica  L.)  is known by over 50 different names, all in the Sanskrit language. Hence the common names obviously have limited usage and for universal applications, a unique name for a particular individual is very much essential. 2. Scientific Names :  To overcome the difficulties raised by common names, scientist have given scientific names to all the known organisms.  These are sys

  2. Systematics of Living Organisms - part 05 -Salient features of Five Kingdoms  Salient features of Five Kingdoms : 1. Kingdom Monera : It contains unicellular organisms with prokaryotic cellular organization.  Monera includes  unicellular prokaryotic organisms. These are omnipresent.  They are found in all types of environment which are not generally inhabited by other living beings.  Few are  photoautotrophs or chemoautotrophs ; but  majority are heterotrophic  in nature.  These organisms do  not have well defined nucleus . DNA exists as a simple double stranded circular single chromosome called as  nucleoid. Smaller circular molecules of DNA as extrachromosomal genetic elements called  plasmids  are often present.  Cell wall is made up of  peptidoglycan  (also called  murein ) which is a polymer of sugars and amino acids. Membrane bound organelles e.g.  mitochondria, chloroplast, endoplasmic reticulum are absent.  Ribosomes are smaller in size  (70S)  than in eukaryotic cells.  T
