Which characteristics do scientists to use to group species?
Scientists use Ancestors and DNA to group DNA.
How is a new species or group of species represented in the scientists?
someone might have mrs. lynch.

Why do scientists classify animals and plants?
So they can determine the taxonomy of the species. i.e. it's genetic heritage by evolutionary processes. Originally it was simply used to tell the difference, as time went on it became necessary to group them into their apparent relationships to relevant species. As the theory of evolution was developed so did the level of taxonomy.
What type of reason was used to develop the evolutionary theory?
Charles Darwin was one of the first influential scientists to support the evolution theory. On his voyages he came across the Galapagos islands which had a group of birds. He noticed that although these birds were of the same species at first, that they having been separated across the islands, developed different characteristics and soon were no longer able to interbreed. This was the start of the theory of evolution for Charles Darwin as he explained their change of characteristics by saying that they evolved.

How do taxonomists group organisms when they classify them?
Taxonomists group organisms based on their similarities in characteristics such as morphology, behavior, genetics, and evolutionary history. They use a hierarchical system with categories like kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species to organize and classify organisms. This system helps scientists understand the relationships between different organisms and their evolutionary history.
Why do scientist classify animals?
Scientists classify animals to organize and understand the vast diversity of living organisms on Earth. Classification helps to group organisms with similar characteristics together, making it easier to study and communicate about them. It also provides insights into the evolutionary relationships between different species.
What is phylogeny?
I think you mean phylogeny. Phylogeny is the evolutionary history of a species or group of related species.
What is the function of genus?
Genus is a rank in the classification of organisms, representing a group of species that are closely related and share common characteristics. It helps scientists organize and categorize living organisms based on their similarities and evolutionary relationships. Genus is used in binomial nomenclature to form the first part of an organism's scientific name.

What way do scientists group organisms?
Scientists group organisms by classifying them into the six kingdoms and then the further phylum by similarities in appearance. They are then classified into species.
What is the main point of a cladogram?
to group organism together base on their evolutionary history to group organism together base on their evolutionary history
Is the evolutionary history of a species or group of related species?
The evolutionary history of a species of a group of species is the way these species relate to each other. The evolutionary history of man, for example, shows that we have a more recent common ancestor with the genus Pan (chimpansees) than the genus Gorilla (gorillas).
What is one important way how do scientists group animals?
One way scientists group species is when they check their appearance and how closely related they are to other organisms
