The organism is made up of one cell.
Vertebrate
Invertebrate
Segmented
Unicellular
The organism is made up many cells.
Multicellular
Unicellular
Autotrophic
Heterotrophic
Organisms can make their own food.This is primarily done through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.
Prokaryotes
Eukaryotes
Autotrophic
Heterotrophic
Organisms get their nutrition from an outside source. This is usually done by eating or absorbing nutrients.
Prokaryotes
Eukaryotes
Autotrophic
Heterotrophic
Have a nucleus and othermembrane-bound organelles
Prokaryotes
Eukaryotes
Autotrophic
Heterotrophic
Do NOT have a nucleus nor other membrane-bound organelles in their cells. Ex: Bacteria
Prokaryotes
Eukaryotes
Autotrophic
Heterotrophic
A group that organisms are placed in for classification.
Taxonomy
Binomial nomenclature
Taxon
The study of evolutionary history
Phylogeny
Clade
Cladogram
Derived characteristic
A trait that arose in the most recent common ancestor and was passed to the next descendant.
Phylogeny
Clade
Cladogram
Derived characteristic
The emergent growth or extinction of large clades(groups) of organisms like dinosaurs or mammals.
Macroevolutionary pattern
Background extinction
mass extinction
The extinction of organisms that fail to adapt in the normal course of time.
Macroevolutionary pattern
Background extinction
mass extinction
The extinction of organisms on grand scale - global death.
Macroevolutionary pattern
Background extinction
mass extinction
Slow and steady evolution.
gradualism
punctuated equilibrium
adaptive radiation
convergent evolution
coevolution
Long period of little or no change followed by sudden changes.
gradualism
punctuated equilibrium
adaptive radiation
convergent evolution
coevolution
Single species evolves in to multiple new species as they move to new environments
gradualism
punctuated equilibrium
adaptive radiation
convergent evolution
coevolution
When tow species that are unrelated arrive at similar adaptation. Ex. Flightless birds.
gradualism
punctuated equilibrium
adaptive radiation
convergent evolution
coevolution
When two species evolve in response to each other such as the snake and the salamander.
gradualism
punctuated equilibrium
adaptive radiation
convergent evolution
coevolution
