Animal Diversity The number of animal varieties familiar to us is vast as the animal world is diverse. Each distinct variety or type of animals is recognized by scientist as a species. Animals of most species are free-living forms but of others are parasitic in bodies of other animals or even plants. According to their habitats animals are divided into the following types Aquatic animals :- They live in water . Animals living in sea water are called marine & those live in river‚ponds‚streams

who laid the foundations for the current scheme of nomenclature. He is known as the father of modern taxonomy and is thought as one of the fathers of modern ecology. Although best known as a botanist his scientific achievements expand into the mineral world and zoology. Always being curios about the complete natural world since a young age he wanted to know the whole map of nature. This mapping is the name convention known as the “binary nomenclature” that he himself introduced. Linnaeus published

Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds Aromatic Compounds- possess a ring shaped structure Benzene (C6H6)- aka. naphtha - unsaturated cyclic compound - simplest aromatic HC - all C to C bonds are identical; each C has a H atom - substitution reactions occur instead of addition reaction - delocalized pi bonding in benzene imparts stability (aromaticity); responsible for resistance to addition reactions (involve breaking delocalized bonding) Benzene Derivatives- produced when one or more H atoms on benzene

Carolus Linnaeus Perhaps the most famous botanist of all time was Carolus Linnaeus. While commonly called Linnaeus‚ he was a Swede whose real name was Karl von Linné. His great contribution was to devise the binomial system for naming plants that is still used today. He gave every plant only two names‚ the first for its genus and the second for its species. Aster‚ for instance‚ is the genus of a group of plants that have many characteristics in common and are closely related. But with more than

Acacia (/əˈkeɪʃə/ or /əˈkeɪsiə/)‚ also known as a thorntree‚ whistling thorn or wattle‚ is a genus of shrubs and trees belonging to thesubfamily Mimosoideae of the family Fabaceae‚ described by the Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus in 1773 based on the African speciesAcacia nilotica. Many non-Australian species tend to be thorny‚ whereas the majority of Australian acacias are not. All species are pod-bearing‚ with sap and leaves often bearing large amounts of tannins and condensed tannins that historically

Carl Linnæus Carl Linnaeus was a great scientist who made breakthroughs in botany‚ zoology‚ medicine and‚ most importantly‚ biology. He was one of the greatest scientists of his time. Even to this day‚ his system of naming organisms is used all over the world‚ and his theory in classification is still the most significant. Linnaeus was born on May the 23rd 1707 and he died on January the 10th 1778‚ at seventy years old. He lived in Sweden and studied in three different Swedish universities

Animal Classification When we go to a bookstore‚ we see thousands of books neatly arranged. First‚ they are grouped by subjects. We see labels such as novels‚ memoirs‚ comics‚ and history. Within each of those groups‚ the books are shelved in alphabetical order of authors’ last names. Since all the books are kept in a logical order‚ it is easy for us to find a book that interests us. 1 Just as with books‚ scientists use a similar approach to categorize all the animals that have ever lived
