Taxonomy 5.1 In bio 20 we have started to learn about evolution. which i was quite excited about, but it turns out its actually alot different then i thought it would be. Like taxonomy; i knew that we all had scientific names but every species is actually grouped in this chart and we call it taxonomy. Here is the overveiw: Definition: the science of classification according to the inferred relationships among orginisms basicly this means species are all classified in a chart according to their ancestors. the picture to your right is all the catagories that species are sorted into. Here is an example where i will catagorize a human and a nine-banded armadillo, as odd as that is. Common name Human Nine-banded armadillo Kingdom animalia animalia Phylum chordata chordata Class mammalia mammalia Order primata cingulata Family hominide Dasypodide Genus Homo Dasypus Species Homo Sapiens Dasypus Novemcinctus
