Starting with the many, many different kinds of animals scientists group the most similar together. At times they use information about how species evolved. Some species can be differentiated because they they cannot breed together.
Consider camels, for example. (Please see the link.) There are two species of camel. In many ways they are very similar; they differ in that one specied has a single hump, the other two.
Since they bear their weight primarily on their third and forth toes, have hooves, are herbivores and live on land they are grouped with pigs, hippopotamuses, llamas and other animals that have similar characteristics.
They bear live babies and the mothers feed them their own milk, so they are mammals like us.
They have backbones, so they are grouped with the vertebrates, like us.
And finally they are animals.

Which parts of the respiratory system divide into smaller and smaller tubes?
The bronchi are passages that direct air into the lungs, which are the main organs of the respiratory system. Inside of the lungs, each bronchus divides into smaller and smaller tubes, resembling the branches of a tree. At the end of the tubes are the alveoli, which are the tiny sacs of lung tissue specialized for the movement of gases between air and blood.

Who is the first scientist to divide living things into groups called kingdoms although he proposed only two kingdoms you plant and animals?
Because they realized that not everything was plants and animals. For example, earlier, they characterized Kingdom Fungi as plants however when they searched deeply about it, they realized that there are some characteristics that aren't for plants (ex: fungi are heterotrophs - they can't make their own food). Hope this answers your question! :)
