How do i classify organisms?
99400
Use the Linnaeus System:\n\nKingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species\n\nA way to remember it: Katie Put Clams On Fred's Giant Stomach. I learned it in HS Biology 30+ years ago and never have forgotten it.

A taxonomist is a biologist who specializes in the classification of organisms into groups on the basis of their structureand origin and behavior.\n\nI couldn't find anything else

Organisms are classified into large groups first...but those organisms must have similar characteristics(taxonomy), so if we are classifying a butterfly...all have wings and go through a similar life cycle. From that large group, we can see that certain butterflies have specialized body shapes(morphology), and we continue to reduce the groups into those sharing the most characteristics. Those groups are further divided until we reach the Genus level where all of the ones put together have the same general anatomy, then we divide it further into the species level where every one of those organisms are the same (exceptions of both color and size may occur). It is easy if you think of some basics:\n1. Kingdoms (There are four kingdoms)\n2.Phylla (There are more than 20 phyla)\n3.Class (i.e. all mammals belong to the class Mammalia)\n4.Order (i.e. all meat-eating animals belong to Carnivora)\n5.Family (i.e. dogs, foxes, wolves belong to Canidae)\n6.Genus (i.e. Foxes belong to the genus Vulpes)\n7.Species (this identifies one of the genus specifically, i.e.\n    Vulpes zerda is the fennec fox of North Africa)

Below is the taxonomy used by zoologists to classify animals.  Hope that helps.

id say the plants and animals are multi-celled and the others are single-celled. also cell specilization could be a difference.

Taxonomic categories? I can name some of the taxa we're included in, but the categories change rather frequently. \n\nAnimalia\nEumetazoa\nBilateria\nDeuterostomia\nChordata\nCraniata\nVertebrata\nGnathostomata\nEuteleostomi\nSarcopterygii\nTetrapoda\nAmniota\nSynapsida\nMammalia\nTheria\nEutheria\nArchonta\nPrimates\nHaplorhini\nAnthropoidea\nHominoidea\nHominidae\nHomo \nH. sapiens\n\n\nAll these nested taxa are "stages of evolution" if by that you understand evolutionary acquisitions.

Taxonomic classification systems are useful for a couple of significant reasons.  First and foremost, it creates a name for each living organism that ALL scientists can agree upon.  Therefore, biologists on opposite sides of the world can be confident that they are discussing the same organism when looking at the taxonomic label of that organism.  Secondly, the design of the system is useful for showing evolutionary relationships among organisms.  Generically, the breakdown is kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species.  There are five kingdoms (six in some systems) and millions upon millions of species.  For any two organisms, they are more closely related evolutionarily if they share a classification more toward the species.  For example, two organisms that share a genus are more closely related than two other organisms that only share a family.  You should know that there modifications of the above system so that you get things like subphyla, superfamilies, etc.  The genus and species names are GENeral and SPECIfic for a particular organism and are always written in italics, with the genus name being capitalized and the species name beginning with a lower-case letter.  The millions of species described by the system is a testimony to the great biodiversity of life on this planet.

Yes, a fish is classed as an animal. They are vertebrates, there are more than 30,000 different species of fish.

You pretty much got it.\n\nDepending on which classification system you're using a simple breakdown looks like this:\n\nDomain: Eukaryotes in this case, such as protists, fungi, animals and plants\n\nKingdon: Plante\n\nDivision: The plant kingdom is divided in to divisions (not phylums like animals) - some examples (in laymans terms):  mosses, liverworts, hornworts, ferns, cycads, gnetophytes, conifers, flowering plants \n\nClass: Two of the main groups of the flowering plants are monocots (like grasses and lilies) and dicots (like sunflowers and roses\n\nOrder: The next group. The group Magniolophyta you mentioned are here.\n\nFamily: some examples... grasses, asters, roses, buttercups\n\nGenus: examples from the Pine family (these are conifers) pine, spruce, fir, juniper\n\nSpecies: (from the spruce) blue spruce, Engalman spruce, black spruce\n\nThe genus and species are used together to form the scientific name of an organisim, e.g. Picea pungens (Blue Spruce)

By structure or by type. Do you mean Blood cell types? If so then they are classified by type. Such as: Erythrocytes, \nPlatelets, Leukocytes...  There are two types of cells, eukaryotic and prokaryotic. Eukaryotic cells are usally found in multi-cellular organisms, while prokaryotic cells are usually on their own. Or do you mean classifying specific cells such as cancer cell types? Or did you mean prison cell types? The question is to broad. The basic cell types are the two stated above. Hope that helps.

Bacteria are procaryotes. Their cell structure is different from those of plants and animals (Eucaryotes) they are in their own category altogether. Years and years ago they were categorized as plants. Some of them have clorophyll. How old is your brother's science book?

3. populations that have the potential to interbreed and produce fertile offspring.\n\nnumber 1 could be a taxon, number 2 could be a population, 4 is allopatric organisms, and 5 is organisms in the same niche.\n\nof course, 3 gets fuzzy as soon as you want to talk about organisms with the ability to clone themselves, like bacteria... but generally the definition is a group of organisms that have the ability to interbreed and produce fertile offspring.

Here are two links. The first dscribes it's taxonomical charicteristics, the second link has pictures.\n\nGood Luck.
