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
