Organisms are classified into groups using a binomial system with a genus and species name in Latin for consistency. This document discusses how the binomial system of classification works, with the genus name first and capitalized and the species name following, to categorize organisms into the five kingdoms of animals, plants, fungi, bacteria, and protists. It prompts finding the Latin names of common organisms like cats and dogs on Wikipedia to illustrate patterns between closely related species names.
3. Find some names for other organisms Go to www.wikipedia.com Type in: Cat Dog wolf Tiger Lion Any other organism WRITE DOWN THE LATIN NAMES FOR GENUS AND SPECIES. What do you notice about the tiger and the lion? What do you notice about the wolf and the dog? What does this tell you?
