Detailed explanation-1: -Organisms with similar characteristics are grouped within these broad kingdoms. Organisms are usually grouped together based on their unique characteristics. The classification of an organism often provides useful information about its evolutionary history and which other organisms are related to it.
Detailed explanation-2: -Living organisms are classified mainly to avoid confusion, to make study of organisms easy and learn how various organisms are related to each other. Scientists classified living organisms into different kingdoms, phylum, class, etc and are based on different criteria.
Detailed explanation-3: -Taxonomy and systematics comprise the describing, naming and classifying of plants and animals, and studying their origins and interrelationships.
Detailed explanation-4: -It helps us remember different plants (i.e. it is possible to remember more plants if we can organize them into categories) It helps in the discovery of new species because it aids in predicting what characteristics newly discovered species have if we can compare and contrast them with already known species.
