Organisms whose cells have NO nucleus are classified as...

• Eukaryotic
• Prokaryotic
• Dead

Algae and Kelp belong to the Kingdom...

• Plantae
• Protista
• Fungi
• Eubacteria

The correct order of classification from the BROADEST group to the most narrow is:

• Species, Genus, Family, Order, Class, Phylum, Kingdom
• Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Family, Order, Genus, Species
• Kingdom, Family, Order, Phylum, Class, Genus, Species
• Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species

Which characteristics best describes the Plant Kingdom?

• single celled; eukaryote; make own food

• multicellular, prokaryote, make own food

• multicellular, eukaryote, make own food

• single celled, prokaryote, eat food

The study of how things are classified is known as:

• binomial nomenclature
• a dichotomous key
• taxonomy

The rules for naming an organism are:

• Capitalize Genus, lowercase species, underline or italicize entire word
• Capitalize both Genus and species, underline or italicize the entire word
• write it how ever you want
• Capitalize Genus, lowercase species, make the entire word in bold print
