A stereoscope has binocular viewing of larger specimens. The lenses are usually 10x to 20x. It can be used for thicker specimens and has a 3D view.

TAXONS
1. Most genera
contain a number of similar species, with the exception of Homo that only
contain modern humans
2. Each successive
classification category or taxon contains more different types of
organisms than the preceding category
DOMAINS
1.
Archaea and
Eubacteria:
They are unicellular
prokaryotes ( no nucleus or membrane- bound organelles)
2. Eukarya are more complex and have a nucleus and membrane-bound
organelles
Rules for naming organisms:
- The international Code for Binomial Nomenclature contains the rules for naming organisms
- All names must be approved by the International Naming Congress (international zoological Congress)
Classification groups
Taxon: a category
into which related organisms are placed
There is a hierarchy
of group from broadest to most specific:
- Domain
- Kingdom
- Phylum
- Class
- Order
- Family
- Genus
- Species
