- Classification and Plant Phylums
- First cell was a single cell meaning that after that all other cells were developed
- Classification helps us to understand evolutionary relationships and also to study different group of organisms
- there are two types of classification;morphology and phylogeny
- Morphology is the study of internal and external physical features
- phylogeny is the study of DNA and establishing molecular relationships
- there are two types of classification;morphology and phylogeny
- Linnaeus discovered the binominal naming system in 1735
- there are three kinds of domains; eukaryotes, bacteria and archaea
- Bacteria and archae are examples of prokaryotes since they do not have a nucleus but do have a cell wall
- eukaryotes have a nucleus but do not have a cell wall
- dicotos/dichotomous have 2 seeds in a leaf eg pea
- Monochots have one seed e.g. corn or wheat
- human classification system: Domain= eukaryota, Kingdom= animalia, Phylum= Chordata, Class= Mammalia, Order= primates, Family= Homonidae, Genus= Homo, Species= Sapiens
- diploids = 46 chromosomesin humans and haploids are 23 chromosomes
- There are 4 main types of plant phylums; Bryophyta= mosses, Filicinophyta=ferns, Coniferophyta= coniferous trees and Angiospermophyta= flowering plants
- bryophytas: green, non vascular, seedless, reproduce via spores, gametophytes, small leaves, low stature
- Filicinopyta: seedless, vascular, spores at the back of leaf, large leaves called fronds, low stature, stems are underground

- coniferophyta: needle like leaves, naked seeds, cones, vascular
