Why is the binomial system important
Helps scientists identify individual species
9 of 28
Explain what is meant by Vertebrates
Animals with back bones e.ego Reptiles,birds. External Fertilisation
10 of 28
Bony fish
Oxygen through gills,body temp varies according to their surronndings e.g. Clownfish
11 of 28
Explain what is meant by Amphibians
Usually have lungs, absorb oxygen through skin, temp varies based on their surroundings e.g. Frogs. External Fertilisation.
12 of 28
Reptiles
Have lungs and dry scales, body temp varies based on their surroundings,internal fertilisation.
13 of 28
Birds
Have lungs, feathers and beaks. Can manage their body temp ( Homeotherms) Internal ferilisation
14 of 28
Mammals
Have lungs and fur. can maintain their body temp. Internal fertilisation, give birth ( Viviparous) e.g. Squirrels
15 of 28
What is meant by the term Invertebrates
Animals without backbones e.g. Arthropods
16 of 28
Aren Arthropods important explain why?
Yes they are imporant phylum of invertebrates
17 of 28
What makes an Arthropod
Hard exoskeleton (their skeleton is on the outside rather than on the inside), segmented body (their body has different sections) , Jointed Legs
18 of 28
How many groups of Arthropods are there?
4
19 of 28
Name and explain the types of Arthropod groups
Insect 6 legs e.g. ant. Arachnids 8 legs g.g. spider. Crustaceans 10-14 legs. Myriapods 20+
20 of 28
What are the three other invertebrate groups
Annelids, Nematodes, Molluscs
21 of 28
What is difference between the 4 arthropods comared to the three other invertebrate groups
They do now have jointed legs
22 of 28
What are Annelids
segmented worms with soft bodies e.g. earth worms
23 of 28
What are Nematodes
Nematodes are tiny, thin worms without segments. Many species are free-living but others are parasites that cause disease.
24 of 28
Molluscs
usually have a broad muscular foot and may also have a shell. Examples of molluscs e.g. snails,
25 of 28
What are the two main groups of flowering plants
Monocotledons & Eudicotyledons
26 of 28
Briefly explain what Monocotyledons is
Parallel Vien and the parts of their flowers come in threes e.g. Wheat plants
27 of 28
Eudicotyledons
Parts of their flowers come in 4 or 5 e.g. sunflowers, Oak trees
