This post covers Exam questions on BIOLOGY TAXONOMY with complete solutions (graded A+). Test your knowledge and understanding on taxonomy using this sample questions
six kingdoms - Archaea, eubacteria, protista, fungi, plantae, animalia
Viruses are in the kingdom ___________ - TRICK QUESTION - they are not classified
Kingdoms are divided into - Phyla (animals) divisions (other kingdoms)
Phylum are divided into - Classes
Classes are divided into - Orders
Orders are divided into - Families
Families are divided into - Genera
Genera are divided into - Species
The order in which animals are classified - Domain - Kingdom - Phyla - Class - Order -
Families - genus - species
Classification of humans - Domain : eukarya
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Subphylum: vertebrata
Class: mammalia
Order: Primates
Family: Hominidae
Tribe: Homini
Genus: Homo
Species: Sapiens
Monerans are - Prokaryotes - bacteria
, Monera was a kingdom that was divided into - Eubacteria and arcahaea
Characteristics of eubacteria - Single celled prokaryotes with double stranded circular
DNA not enclosed by a membrane; have cell walls ; active in biogeochemical cycles ;
can be cocci (round), bacilli (rods) and spirilla (spiral) - can be duplexes, clusters
(staph), and chains (strepto)
What kingdom are single-celled prokaryotes with a double stranded, circular DNA -
Eubacteria
True or False: Almost all forms of eubacteria have cell walls - True
Which kingdom plays a highly active role in biogeochemical cycles? - Eubacteria
What shapes can Eubacteria have? - Cocci (round), bacilli (rods), and spirilla
A cluster of eubacteria has the prefix - Staph-
A chain of eubacteria has the prefix - Strepto-
Characteristics of cyanobacteria - Bacteria in freshwater or marine environments; have
a cell wall and photosynthetic pigments; no flagella, nuclei, chloroplasts, or
mitochondria; can withstand extreme temperatures. Also called blue-green algae
Blue green algae - Cyanobacteria found in kingdom eubacteria - have photosynthetic
pigments but no chloroplasts/mitochondria
What types of bacteria can withstand extreme temperatures? - Cyanobacteria / blue-
green algae
Characteristics of Archaea - Prokaryotes, cell walls and flagella, cell membranes made
of glycerol-ether lipids, have metabolism and translation, can be found in extreme areas
with high temperatures or high acidity
Archaea can be found - Areas with high temperature and high acidity
True or False: Archaea have cell membranes - True - composed of glycerol-ether lipids
COMPARED TO THE GLYCEROL-ESTER LIPIDS OF EUKARYA AND BACTERIA
