Detailed explanation-1: -Biological classification is the process of grouping living organisms on the basis of their similarities and dissimilarities. It is also known as taxonomy.
Detailed explanation-2: -Animal classification means grouping animals according to similarity. This topic covers the animal kingdom, vertebrates (mammals, birds, fish, reptiles, amphibians) and invertebrates (arthropods).
Detailed explanation-3: -The animal classification system characterizes animals based on their anatomy, morphology, evolutionary history, features of embryological development, and genetic makeup. This classification scheme is constantly developing as new information about species arises.
Detailed explanation-4: -Taxonomy is the science that arranges organisms into groups according to their structural features, which makes it easier to study them. Animals are either vertebrates, which have backbones, or invertebrates, which do not have a backbone.
Detailed explanation-5: -The animal kingdom has been broadly classified into two, based on the presence or absence of notochord-Non-Chordata and Chordata. Chordates possess notochord while non-chordates lack it. Animals belonging to the Phylum Porifera to Phylum Echinoderms are non-chordates.
