When did scientists stop classifying living things as either plants or animals?
We can't classify organisms based on color because first, almost every species of organism has a different color, and sometimes organisms within the same species have different colors (lobsters, peacocks, etc.). Plus, most organisms have a wide range of colors, and a big mixture of colors, making it impossible to classify another organism with those same colors.Classifying by colors is just too broad of a classification technique, and would be impossible to track (as said before) animals with the same color, but different species, or animals with the different color but same species.
