Task 1: Short answer - 10 Questions
1. In many viral diseases (such as smallpox, mumps, or influenza), illness occurs shortly after
exposure to the virus. In others (such as AIDS), the victim may not show symptoms for
many years following the initial exposure. How would you explain the difference between
these two situations?
2. Various bacteria are normally present in most of our body systems. These “good” bacteria
are essential for maintaining health. Describe two risks and two benefits of using
antibacterial creams to cure vaginal infections.
3. State and describe two differences between bacteria and viruses.
4. a) State one reason why viruses are considered to be non-living organisms by some
biologists.
b) State one reason why viruses are considered to be living organisms by some biologists.
5. a) Which major level of classification contains the most closely related species?
b) Which major level of classification contains the largest grouping of species?
6. List and describe three ecological roles of fungi OR three ecological roles of protists.
7. State and describe three characteristics of a body plan.
8. List and describe three reasons for habitat loss caused by humans.
9. Why do endothermic animals have far greater energy requirements than ectotherms?
10. Using the shark anatomy pictures and the key provided, classify the 10 sharks labelled 1-

Task 2: Mind Map
Recall an earlier activity where you created a mind map of the kingdom Animalia. It may have
looked something like this one:
Kingdom Animalia
Invertebrates
Simple
Invertebrates
phylum phylum
Porifera Cnidaria
(no backbone)
Worm-like
Invertebrates
phylum
Nematoda
phylum
phylum
Complex Joint-legged
Invertebrates

Mollusca Echinodermata
Platyhelminthes Annelida
phylum
Porifera
Vertebrates
(backbone)
phylum
Chordata
class Arachnida
class Crustacea
class Insecta
class Diplopoda
class Chilopoda
class Agnatha
class Osteichthyes
class Amphibia
class Reptilia
class Aves
class Mammalia
Now, it is time to put together all the information you learned about the different kingdoms into
one concept map. All terms must be included.
You may create this concept map however you like. You may use pen and paper or you may
choose to use a computer program/digital tool. Another option would be to use index cards to
write the terms on them and then organize them on a flat surface and take a picture to submit
when complete. This could be done with "sticky notes" on a wall too. There are lots of terms and
you must consider how they will be organized together.
Notice how, in the example above, the categories or 'groupings' that were not official scientific
classifications (for example, simple invertebrates, worm-like invertebrates, complex
invertebrates, joint-legged invertebrates, invertebrates, and vertebrates) do not have kingdom,
phylum, or class in front of them. They are just classifications that scientists use to help them
understand the living world. In your concept map, make sure you can tell which classifications
are official phyla and which ones are just groupings scientists make to help their understanding.
The reason this is done is because there are so many phyla in each kingdom.
In your concept map, aim to incorporate and make connections between all the terms as
provided in the table below. Include characteristics and common features in your concept map.
Organizing all of this will be difficult, but stick with it. It will help to get the big picture of all the
material and terms you have learned throughout this unit.
