classification processes o o o o o o o o o o o o o recognise that biological classification can be hierarchical and based on different levels of similarity of physical features, methods of reproduction and molecular sequences describe the classification systems for o similarity of physical features (the Linnaean system) o methods of reproduction (asexual, sexual — K and r selection) o molecular sequences (molecular phylogeny — also called cladistics) define the term clade recall that common assumptions of cladistics include common ancestry, bifurcation and physical change interpret cladograms to infer the evolutionary relatedness between groups of organisms analyse data from molecular sequences to infer species evolutionary relatedness recognise the need for multiple definitions of species identify one example of an interspecific hybrid that does not produce fertile offspring (e.g. mule, Equus mulus) explain the classification of organisms according to the following species interactions: predation, competition, symbiosis and disease understand that ecosystems are composed of varied habitats (microhabitat to ecoregion) interpret data to classify and name an ecosystem explain how the process of classifying ecosystems is an important step towards effective ecosystem management (consider old-growth forests, productive soils and coral reefs) describe the process of stratified sampling in terms of o purpose (estimating population, density, distribution, environmental gradient ...
