CLASSIFICATION JOURNAL #1

Why do we need to classify organisms?
-To be more organized
-Easier to study their properties (organisms with similar properties are grouped              together)


-Understand them easily


- Accurately & uniformly names organisms


- Prevents misnomers such as starfish & jellyfish that aren't fish


- Standard language (Latin & Greek) for names
