What is Classification?What is Classification?
ClassificationClassification is the is the arrangement of organisms arrangement of organisms into orderly into orderly groupsgroups based based on their on their similaritiessimilarities
Classification is also known Classification is also known as as taxonomytaxonomy
Taxonomists Taxonomists are scientists are scientists that identify & name that identify & name organismsorganisms

Benefits of ClassifyingBenefits of Classifying
•Accurately & uniformlyAccurately & uniformly names organisms- make names organisms- make sense of #s sense of #s
•Prevents Prevents misnomers misnomers (mistakes)(mistakes) such as starfish such as starfish & jellyfish that aren't & jellyfish that aren't really fish really fish
•Uses Uses same language same language (Latin or some Greek)(Latin or some Greek) for for all names all names
