Illustrate these two organisms specifying which “daddy long legs” they represent and give the correct scientific name for each one. Tipula sp. Pholcus phalangioides Metaphalangium albounilineatum

Scientists gave a different scientific name to each organism so they could not get confused.
2. Investigate the EIGHT current classification categories (or taxa) and explain in what way they are hierarchy. (Hint: the first category is the DOMAIN). Give the complete classification …show more content…
Investigate the taxonomic classification of a bottle-nose dolphin, a rainbow trout and a grizzly bear. What features do you think that had to be considered in order to determine whether a dolphin was more closely related to a fish or to a bear? Say to which of the two the dolphin is more closely related.
Even though the dolphin and rainbow trout live in the same ecosystem, the dolphin has more in common with the bear and we can notice this by checking the class of each of them; they are both mammals.
But they do develop themselves differently, so we could say that anatomically or scientifically saying, dolphins are more related to bears but in the way of acting and living it´s obvious that trout owns the place.
6. Even though chimpanzees and humans have fewer molecular differences than do any two human beings, chimpanzees and humans are classified in different families by traditional taxonomists. Chimpanzees and humans do have several skeletal and other anatomical differences such as the size of their brains. Humans also have a much more sophisticated culture, including use of …show more content…
Why do you say so?
No, because human beings, even thought, we do share many similitudes with the animals, we are a whole new specie that can´t be compared with animals when it comes to the way of acting and thinking we are supposed to be the only ones.
In life we will find many similarities. Somehow we (all living things) are all connected by the same life even though our specific differences.
Scientists have made a great job classifying all organisms in 8 principal categories, but it required of a lot of effort, that much that they had to put an “special name” to each organisms to avoid confusion between themselves because of the use of the same word for different things in different parts of the world.
Sometimes we may think wrongly if we let us go by the superficial thing, but, when we really analyze we can see that things, like organisms, that might look similar because of the place they life, can be related to some that we might never imagine. All the organisms are similar to each other, even if it’s just in something
