The Linnaean classification system classifies organisms from broadest to most specific in the following order:

• domain-->kingdom-->phylum-->class-->order--->family-->genus-->species

• domain-->kingdom--> class-->order-->family-->genus--->species

• phylum--> order-->species--->genus-->kingdom--> class--->family

• class--->species--->genus---->phylum--->family--->order--->kingdom

Why are dichotomous keys helpful to scientists?

• They determine what species eat.

• They show how organisms are related.

• They help determine where organisms live.

• They are of no help to scientists.

Why do we have a taxonomic system?

• to determine the biochemistry of different organisms.

• to organize and identify organisms.

• to magnify living organisms.

• to look at pictures of organisms.
