Activity #1
ARTIFICIAL CLASSIFICATION
Cannot describe all plants classification of plants into different taxa based upon
one or few characteristics of plants which is selected by authors. Such as,
Reproductive behavior
Physical appearances
Habitat
Phenology
Cotyledon etc.
ADVANTAGES

NATURAL CLASSIFICATION
1
DE VILLA, ERIC L.
EXERCISE ON BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION
It place together organisms that have the greatest number of shared features.
No single features is not important but total features are tools of classification.
ADVANTAGES
DISADVANTAGES
PHYLOGENETICS CLASSIFICATION
System where it is believed that every species is come from the evolutionary
change.
ADVANTAGES

EXERCISE ON BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION
DISADVANTAGES
MECHANICAL CLASSIFICATION
The classification systems developed at this period was based on the habit as well
as organs of fructification such as position, locule, number, and seed number.
Activity #2
Grocery
Shelf
Apples Orange
Mandarin
Dalanghita
Ponkan

EXERCISE ON BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION
Yes. The classification process that I used was natural classification because I
grouped the variables into what I think is closest to them.
Yes. On top of all these terms are main variable which I presumed was the
grocery.
3. Were there ranks established? How many ranks where established? Name these
ranks.
Yes, based on my work above, there are four. Hardware, section, store, produce.
The position of dalanghita is under the oranges with ponkan and mandarin.
5. What is the predictive value of your scheme? Where can I get leafy vegetables?
6. What criteria can be used to assess whether your scheme is predictive or not?
Explain.

EXERCISE ON BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION
Yes, the loss is the coloration of the flower because from the start it is dark
but when matured it is now light color. The gain of it is the leaves and also
the number of thorns.
7. How many characters did you use? Would the number at the nature and quality of
the character used influence the outcome of the proposed scheme? Explain.
We assume that there are 3 characters, including the stem, leaves, thorns
and the presume to be the flower.
8. Would some characters be more important than others? Explain.
Yes, because from the first look at the pictures you will look first to the
big details like the shape and structures of a leaf so you will assume that,
that plant is having the same characteristics from the other not knowing
the small details.
9. Did you arrive at the same conclusions? If yes,to what extent is the similarity of
your answers? If not, show the difference between your results and reconcile the
disparity.
No, because we all have different opinion to different aspects. Some have
2 groups and some are 4 groups and also some is their opinion is the plant
hybridize to the other one which results to that species.
