[BIOL207] - Final Exam Guide - Everything you need to know! (78 pages long)

I'm looking for a way to learn taxonomy of animals for my bio class. Our lecture is a non-animated powerpoint and just reading isn't enough to help me actually learn the material. My textbook is really good and I take notes to combine with the lectures my professor created but I need something more interactive. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can anyone help me answer these in detail please. These are part of material i need to know for my next exam and have no clue about them and cant find anuthing in our lecture notes about them
