BiologicalClassification
Biological classification is the systematic arrangement of organisms into hierarchical groups based on shared characteristics and evolutionary relationships. This organization helps scientists categorize and study the vast diversity of life on Earth, from the smallest bacteria to the largest mammals. The classification system groups organisms into increasingly specific categories, starting with broad groups like domains and kingdoms, and progressing to more specific groups like phyla, classes, orders, families, genera, and species. This system allows researchers to better understand the relationships between different species and how they have evolved over time.
