Naming and Classifying
Microorganisms Carolus Linnaeus established
the system of scientific nomenclature in 1739.
Each organism has two names Binomial nomenclature: Genus + specific epithet (species)
Italicized (or underlined), genus capitalized, “latinized”, used worldwide.
May be descriptive or honor a scientist.

Have either DNA or RNA in core
Core is surrounded by a protein coat.
Coat may be enclosed in a lipid envelope.
Viruses only replicate within a living host cell.

The Transition Period: Debate over Spontaneous Generation Aristotles’s doctrine of
spontaneous generation. Hypothesis that living organisms arise from nonliving matter; a “vital force” forms life
Biogenesis: Hypothesis that the living organisms arise from preexisting life
