Prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
^^^^
Ok yes those are the groups, I'll explain how. Prokaryotes mean they have no nucleus in which they store genetic material. Eukaryotes are organisms that do store genetic material in their nucleus. Just remember, you are eukaryotic. That way you can never confuse the two.
Until recently, life was considered to be in five kingdoms: Animalia, Plantae, Protista, Fungi, and Monera.
Thanks to DNA advances, now most scientists believe in a three-domain system: Archaea, Bacteria, and Eucarya.
Archaea are considered the most ancient forms of life. Most are 'extremeofiles', living in places most life could not: the intestines of animals, extremely hot water, or extremely salty water.
Bacteria are considered more evolved, and are the most well known of the single celled animals.
Eucarya are plants, fungi, and animals, with fungi considered to be closer to animal than plant on the new tree of life.
A classification is important to scientists because it can help them classify living things( to help them sort things so there won't be a billion groups)!
so that they can compare the things in that group
well, to classify living things scientists use a dichotomous key. A dichotomous key is a key which is sort of like a family tree, the key is split into two branches. di means 2.sometimes scientists use other keys to classify living thing. hope this helped.
Aristotle separated plants from animals. Then animals were subdivided by land, water, and air. Plants were subdivided as small, medium, and large.
Carolus Linnaeus created the scientific classification system for living things. He did not consider whether the system would allow scientists to classify living things by their evolutionary relationships.
Over 2000 years ago, a Greek scientist named Aristrotle(AIR uh staht ul) was one of the first people to classify living things.

they classify them by puting them into groups
scientist classify parts of an ecosystem by biotic things (living things) and abiotic things ( nonliving things).

Living things are classified to... 1.to classify or specify organisms 2.to classify unique species 3.to clarify for languages throughout the world
coz it is one of the basis for classification...
it is easier to classify them. its called classification of life
so that they can compare the things in that group
To be able to study all the living things in our universe, we need a way to group or classify them together. Scientists divided all things into living and non-living. Then they divided those (e.g. animal kindom and plant kingdom, then continued dividing them on how the items were seimilar or dissimilar).
