A mnemonic device is a poem rhyme anagram or other item designed to help a person remember something specific. Create one to help you remember the order of the levels of classification.?

A popular mnemonic device for kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species is "King Philip came over for good soup." The device provides an entertaining way to remember the taxonomic classification system in biology. Since modern classification also includes Life and Domain, I would suggest "Last December, King Philip came over for good soup."


What is different about the order of names in Genus Species and the way you usually write your signature in English?

In the scientific naming system of Genus Species, the genus is written first followed by the species. For example, Homo sapiens. In English signatures, it is common to write one's first name followed by the last name, for example, John Smith.


What is a system for species used to name an organism?

The system is called the five-kingdom system. This is the classification of the horse, as an example. Note: There are many more branches, such as superfamily and suborder. I haven't included them, partly because some are the same and partly because I don't know what they are. The ones I have included are in common use and the extras I left out are generally not used, except in detailed scientific textbooks. If you want some more information, go here: www.taxonomicon.com In a general informative book intended to be read by a non-scientist, the last two of these taxa, genus and species, are used. This is often referred to as the latin name or scientific name. For the horse, it's Equus caballus. This is traditionally written in italics. By convention, the initial letter of the species is not capitalised. This whole set is the Taxonomy Of The Horse. Kingdom: AnimaliaSubkingdom: MetazoaPhylum: ChordataSubphylum: VertebrataClass: MammaliaOrder: EutheriaFamily: EquidaeGenus: EquusSpecies: caballusThe animal classification system is similar to that of fungi and plants. The animals (for example a dog) are first classified by kingdom (Animalia), phylum (Chordata), class (Mammalia), order (carnivora), family (canidae), genus (Canis), and finally the specific epithet (familiaris).

So I know I'm right... :) im another person it is right beacasue now im learning about it.


What were Carolus Linnaeus's main contribution to taxonomy?

he created binomial nomenclature, a naming system in which a new species is named with their genus name (the second smallest group aside from species) and then their species, a genus name can also be considered as a family (last) name as if it were a human name. carolus linnaeus also inspired many modern day taxonomy ideas, such as the 5 kingdom idea, and the kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species idea, before linnaeus' work, classification was based on some aristotle's work, which would never be accepted by modern day taxonomists.

If you found a book about butterfly migration with a call number of 595.781 G1543b that number would be based on the classification system.?

The call number 595.781 G1543b is based on the Dewey Decimal Classification system, which organizes library materials by subject. In this case, "595.78" refers to the broader category of insects, specifically butterflies, while "G1543b" indicates the author's last name (G) and a specific identifier for the book (1543b).
