Vertebrate

Animals that have a segmented spinal column

Taxa

The 7 categories of Linnaeus's classification system that include kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species

Protista

Kingdom including the single-celled or microscopic animals and single-celled algae

Osteichthyes (a-stick-it-ies or I stick these)

The bony fish, a large group of vertebrates that live in water and have permanent gills for breathing, fins, and body covered with scales.

Pharyngeal

The area of the pharynx

Taxonomy

The science that is concerned with the naming and classification of organisms

Reptilia

The class that includes tortoises, turtles, terrapins, pythons, snakes, boas, iguanas, lizards, crocodiles, alligators, and caiman

Chordata

A phylum with four characteristics: embryonic notochord, which is replaced by the vertebra; a dorsal tubular nerve chord running down the backside; pharyngeal or throat area gill slits; and a rear tail area.

Mammalia

Vertebrates that possess mammary glands, a body covered with hair, and a well-developed brain.

Notochord

A flexible cord of cells in the embryo stage of growth that eventually become vertebra

Binomial Nomenclature

Linnaeus's system of naming species using Latin. Each species has a name composed of two words. First, the genus that is written with the first word capitalized, and the second, the species that is written with a small first letter.

Plantae

Plant kingdom, including multicellular photosynthesizing organisms, higher plants, and multicellular algae

Placental Mammals

Mammals having placenta through which the embryo and fetus are nourished while in the uterus.

Monera

The kingdom including the bacterial organisms that lack a true nucleus in the cell and reproduce by fission

Fungi

A group of plants that lack chlorophyll and obtain their nourishment from other plants and animals

Trinomial Nomenclature

Added a third name to the binomial nomenclature for an organism that has a subspecies name

Invertebrates

Members of the animal kingdom without backbones

Aves

Class for birds. Warm-blooded vertebrate animals with two legs, feathers, wings and lay eggs.

Animalia

Composed of the invertebrates and vertebrates
