Taxonomy.
Another name for the classification system of classifying living things is taxonomy. This system helps organize and categorize different organisms based on their evolutionary relationships and characteristics.
The system for classifying living things, known as taxonomy, was significantly developed by Carl Linnaeus in the 18th century. He introduced a hierarchical classification system and the binomial nomenclature, which assigns each species a two-part scientific name. This framework laid the foundation for modern biological classification, enabling scientists to organize and categorize the diversity of life systematically.
