Question

What are some processes that are basic to taxonomy?

Answer 1

Taxonomy:

1. Taxonomy, the study of naming, describing, and classifying species, encompasses all plants, animals, and bacteria on the earth.
2. Taxonomists detect, describe, and classify species using morphological, behavioral, genetic, and biochemical observations, including some that are new to science.
3. The cornerstone for monitoring and implementing the Convention on Biological Variety is taxonomy, which defines and counts the components of biological diversity.
4. Characterisation, Identification, Nomenclature, and Classification are the four processes basic to taxonomy.
