Members of the genus Ambystoma, commonly known as mole salamanders, are characterized by their robust bodies, short limbs, and a distinctively broad, flattened head. They typically exhibit a smooth skin texture that can vary in color, often featuring bold patterns or markings. Additionally, many species within this genus undergo a unique life cycle, with some exhibiting a neotenic trait, retaining juvenile features into adulthood.
There is not animal called a hylam. You may be confusing this with a genus of frog called hyla: noun a tree frog of a widespread genus, typically bright green in color. • Genus Hyla, family Hylidae: many species.
Class&genus
The genus Mycoplasma (formerly known as PPLO or pleuropneumonia-like organisms) is a group of bacteria that do not have a cell wall. They have the same genetic content as any other bacterium in that they contain DNA in the form of a circular chromosome.
Not too much. Actually the genes are quite similar between human and other species. For example, there are 99.9% similarity between human being and ape. For human and pig this number should be around 99%.
Nested hierarchy is a way of organizing complex systems or entities into a series of levels, where each level contains increasingly specific subcategories within broader categories. This structure allows for a clear understanding of relationships and classifications, often seen in biological taxonomy, where organisms are grouped from general to specific (e.g., domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species). It can also apply to other fields, such as organizational structures or data classification. Essentially, it illustrates how entities are interconnected and classified in a systematic manner.
One distinguishing characteristic of the members of the genus Ambystoma is their larval form, as they typically have external gills and a distinct aquatic lifestyle before transitioning to their adult form. They also exhibit a diverse range of behaviors and life history strategies, such as paedomorphosis, where some individuals retain their larval features into adulthood.
Ambystoma maculatum
Kindom: Animalia, Phylum: Chordata, Class: Amphibia, Order: Caudata, Family: Ambystomatidae, Genus: Ambystoma, Species: Ambystoma Mexicanum They are mole salamanders that live in Lake Xolchimilco, Mexico but are owned widely in captivity.
Kingdom: Anamalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Amphibia Order: Caudata Family:Ambystomatidae Genus: Ambystoma Species: opacum Scientific name: Ambystoma opacum I am working on a project for school on classification, so i choose the marbled salamander.
Yes, more salamanders from the genus Ambystoma are likely to be more closely related to each other than to Necturus (the mud puppy) or newts, as Ambystoma species share a more recent common ancestor. Ambystoma is a distinct group within the family Ambystomatidae, while Necturus belongs to a different family, Proteidae, and newts are classified under the family Salamandridae. This evolutionary divergence means that Ambystoma salamanders are more genetically similar to one another than to representatives from other salamander families.
The red-backed voles are members of the genus Myodes.
they use genus and dichotomous keys
The classification of organisms from general to specific goes: Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species. Therefor, two species the same Genus MUST be members of the same Family. However, a Family may consist of several different Genus, so species in the same Family are not necessarily members of the same Genus.
The volva is a cup-like structure at the base of certain mushrooms, particularly those in the Amanita genus. Its primary function is to protect the developing mushroom as it emerges from the ground. Additionally, the volva can serve as a distinguishing characteristic for identifying certain mushroom species, especially in terms of edibility and toxicity.
No; if they belong to the same genus then they have to belong to the same family.
