Twort discovered bacterial viruses. 17. Tribe is a race or division of people. Genus is a group of closely related species, which resemble one another in certain characters. Family Critical Thinking represents a group of closely related genera. 1. Classification helps in understanding diverse 18. The term ‘species’ occupies a unique position varieties of organisms and also gives an idea in taxonomic hierarchy. It is not only a basic about the origin and evolution of organisms unit in taxonomy, but also in evolution. which are morphologically similar. 20. Concept of species was remodified as closely 2.

Kingdom is the highest taxonomic category synonymous with taxonomy. composed of different sub-kingdoms. 3. 39. The scientific name of any organism should Domain Kingdom always be printed in italics. The generic name Archaea Archaebacteria (Genus) should always come first and begin with Bacteria Eubacteria capital letter while the specific name (species) should come later and begin with small letter. Eukarya Protista,Fungi, Plantae and Animalia 44. Hibiscus is a taxon, i.e. a particular plant 6. Binomial nomenclature is the system of while genus and species are categories or nomenclature of plants and animals in which ranks in a classification. the scientific name consists of two words or parts or epithets. 56. Thiobacillus is chemoautotroph and belongs to kingdom Monera. 12. Class is a higher category than order, genus and species, so it will include the remaining three. 57. Organisms belonging to kingdom Monera are without membrane bound cell organelles like 14.

Amoeba and Paramoecium are heterotrophic. Protists are unicellular and eukaryotic. 18. Because Monera includes bacteria in which a Trichophyton belong to kingdom Fungi. few are photoautotrophs e.g. Cyanobacteria, a few are chemoautotrophs e.g. Thiobacillus and 76. Yeast belongs to Kingdom – Fungi. rest are heterotrophs e.g. Bacillus sp. 1 MHT-CET Triumph Biology (Hints) 19. Because it is a prokaryote. 24. Carolus Linnaeus classification was published (1753) in a two volume book ‘Species 21. Streptococcus is a bacteria belonging to Plantarum’ which include 7300 plant species. kingdom Monera. The organisms of this kingdom do not possess membrane bound 25. The ‘Binomial system of nomenclature’ was organelles. explained by Carl Linnaeus in his book ‘Species Plantarum’ in 1753. According to 23. According to five kingdom classification, this, system name of any organism/plant single cellular eukaryotes come under Protista consist of two words. First represents its and single cellular prokaryotes come under ‘genera’ and second its ‘species’. Monera. Thus, all single unicellular organisms belong to these two groups. 28. In botanical nomenclature of plants, generic name always begin with the capital letter and 26. Protists are eukaryotes. the specific name with the small letter and it is 33. Pinus is a Gymnosperm. printed in italics. 36. Lichens are the association of algae and fungi. 30. Zoological name of an organism is made up of two words, first is generic name and second is 37. Lichens are formed by close association of specific name. algae and fungi. In these, algae has autotrophic mode of nutrition. 31. Binomial system of nomenclature was introduced in the book ‘Species Plantarum’, 40. The genetic material in viruses is either DNA which was published in 1753. or RNA and surrounded by a protein coat called capsid. 34. The main criteria of Whittaker’s five kingdom system of classification are: Cell type, thallus 46. PSTV has ten times less genetic material than organisation, nutrition, reproduction and the smallest known virus. phylogenetic relationship. Competitive Thinking 35. In five kingdom classification of Whittaker, eukaryotes were assigned to only four of the 1. Taxonomy is a branch of biology which five kingdom.

A German biologist Ernst Haeckel created a third kingdom protista in 1866 for unicellular 2. Nomenclature (Nomen = name; clature = to organism such as bacteria, protozoans, Algae call) is giving distinct scientific names to and fungi. various structures, including living organisms, so they can be easily identified. 37. Monera contains the most primitive living forms which are basically unicellular 12. Division is a major group in the Linnaean prokaryotes. hierarchy used in the classification of plant (equivalent to phylum in animal 38. R.H. Whittaker (1969), an American ecologist, divided all the organisms into five kingdoms. classification). The suffix of division is ‘– phyta’. 40. Cell wall is not present in Mycoplasma. 16. Cohort is a group of correlated families. 43. Overlapping shells are present in diatoms member of Chrysophytes. 19. Category is a rank or level in the hierarchical classification of organisms. Angiospermae is a 46. The wall of diatoms contains cellulose and division. silica. They do not decay easily. After death, they are deposited at the bottom in water and 21. According to binomial system of nomenclature, form diatomaceous earth. the name of plant and animal is composed of two latin or latinized word. e.g. potato is 48. Chitin is a natural structural polysaccharide, Solanum tuberosum. The first word (Solanum) which is found in both insects and fungi. In indicates the generic name and second word fungi it forms the cell wall while in insects it (tuberosum) denotes the specific name. forms the protective covering. 2 Chapter 01: Diversity in Organisms 49. Autotrophy is a characteristic of plants. 66. Genetic material of TMV is single stranded RNA. 50. All single-celled eukaryotes like chrysophytes (diatoms and desmids), euglenoids (Euglena), 70.

Alternaria anaerobes, which belong to Archaebacteria. does not produce sexual spores. 60. Eubacteria are also called true bacteria. 76. Pseudopodia are locomotory and feeding 64.
