Species
Nan May Zin Win
A group of organisms
Species that share the same
characteristics
Members of a species
can breed with each
Distinguishing other and produce
species offspring that are able
to breed
Hybrids
Sometimes members of different species
can breed with each other and produce an
offspring.
The offspring is called a hybrid.
Hybrids are infertile.
+ ->
Naming species
Species have unique two-part scientific
names.
Similar species have the same first name.
The second name identifies each individual
species.
Naming species (example)
We have a lion and tiger:
same first name
-they are both large and roar
(Panthera)
-but they have their distinct different second
variations name
Tiger - Panthera Tigris
Lion - Panthera Leo
Classification

Why do we classify?
We classify living things in groups...
1 2 3
To make the study of To clearly communicate To explore how various
organisms easier about living things with living things are related to
