Diversity of living organisms
Classification of the living organisms (five kingdom
classification, major groups and principles of classification
within each kingdom).
Systematics and binomial System of nomenclature
Salient features of animal (non chordates up to phylum level
and chordates up to class level) and plant (major groups;
Angiosperms up to subclass) classification.
Botanical gardens, herbaria, zoological parks and museums.
