What do scientists most likely consider as important evidence when classifying an unknown organism?
Scientists most likely consider KNOWN characteristics of KNOWN and named organisms when first classifying an unknown organism. They look for similarities and differences between what is known versus unknown. Major differences exclude known categories; strong similarities include the new organism into a known category. This is how scientists continually build a "family tree" of every organism.

Scientific names are descriptive names based on characteristics or habitat of the organism.?
The name given to a specific organism by the science of taxonomy may be related to the characteristics of the organism, as in the case of the well known fruit fly (much beloved of genetic researchers) known as drosophila melanogaster, which means (in Latin) black-bellied moisture lover. However, not every species has such a descriptive name. Species can also be named for the person who first observed that species. Taxonomists can use whatever names they see fit.

What do you think scientists do when they encounter a new organism that doesn't fit into a group?
If a species is discovered that cannot be classified within any known genus, then typically a new genus is named for that one species, and both the genus and the species will share the same name. Due to common decent, however, species will always fit into a group at one level of taxonomic abstraction or another.
What was linnaeus's major contribution to organism classification?
Linnaeus's major contribution to organism classification was the development of a system of binomial nomenclature, where each species is given a two-part Latin name consisting of the genus and species. This system is still used today and forms the basis of modern taxonomy.
