Detailed explanation-1: -This system of classification is called taxonomy. Scientists classify living things at eight different levels: domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. In order to do this, they look at characteristics, such as their appearance, reproduction, and movement, to name a few.
Detailed explanation-2: -Characteristics such as appearance, reproduction, mobility, and functionality are just a few ways in which living organisms are grouped together.
Detailed explanation-3: -Organisms are placed into domains and kingdoms based on their cell type, their ability to make food, and the number of cells in their bodies.
