B.Sc BOTANY Topic :- Takhtajan’s System of Classification

Image
                          Takhtajan’s System of Classification Outline of Classification  The classification as proposed by Takhtajan treats flowering plants as a division (phylum) named Magnoliophyta, with two classes, Magnoliopsida (dicots) and Liliopsida (monocots). These two classes are subdivided into subclasses, and then superorders, orders, and families. Division Class Sub-class Order Magnoliophyta (Angiosperms) Magnoliopsida (Dicotyledons) Magnolidae 7 Hamamelidae 8 Ranunculidae 3 Caryophyllidae 3 Dillenidae 12 Rosidae 16 Asteridae 7 Liliopsida (Monocotyledons) Alismatidae 3 Lilidae 3 Arecidae 5 Commelinidae 6 IN the class -Magnoliopsida :- Most primitive order: Magnoliales Most advanced order: Asterales.      IN the class - liliopsida  :- Most primitive order: Alismatales Most advanced order: Arales. The Takhtajan system is similar to the classification scheme of Cronquist, but with s...

ZOOLOGY SUPERCLASS- PISCES CLASS - CHONDRICHTHYES

 SUPER CLASS PISCES :- CLASS CHONDRICHTHYES :-  ( CARTILAGINOUS FISHES  )   NATURAL HISTORY  Skeleton is made of cartilage. Most sharks and rays are marine, but a few live in tropical rivers above salt water. Sharks live in open water, and rays on the bottom. The sharks are predaceous, active swimmers and feed on small fishes. Sharks and rays are used as human food in many countries. Shark liver contains much oil rich in vitamin A. Sharks are also a nuisance to fishermen, because they tear nets and steal captured fishes. Large sharks may capsize small boats and injure or kill fishermen. Living fishes probably exceed 20,000 species, an abundance and diversity unequalled among all other vertebrates. They originated 530 million years ago allowing vast span of time for evolutionary divergence and for origin and extinction of major phyletic lines.    SCOLIODON (DOGFISH)  :- CLASSIFICATION  Phylum ..............
