Answer 1

Dear student,

Characteristics means particular qualities or features of a person, place or a thing. Species is a group of organisms whose members are descended from a common ancestors and who all possess a combination of certain defining, or derived, traits.
Characteristics are used to identify a species according to their appearance as to find out the maximum possible similar characters or have least differences.
