Scientists place newly discovered species in smaller categorys for more precise identification. For an example you are not the same as a whale but we are grouped together in one bigger category but the smaller the classification gets it is more precise to the species it gets.

What would happen to the world if it didn't have the ocelot?
In an extreme case (which could happen) Because the Ocelot eats smaller animals without them the smaller animals would over run because there would be soo many of them and less of their preditors, then you would also loose species because there are so many of the smaller animals which eat even smaller animals, there would be soo many that the smaller animals prey would soon die out ecause there being over hunted then the small animals would die soo not only would you be loosing the ocelot species you would be loosing the smaller species and the even smaller species making the contense of the rainforest exstinc
How do scientists place vertebrates into groups?
The vertebrates are animals with a backbone. Scientists separate this group into smaller groups because of their features:how the animal takes in oxygen -- lungs, gills or through the skinthermoregulation -- maintains own temperature (homeotherms) or temperature varies with surroundings (poikilotherms)reproduction -- internal or external fertilization, lay eggs (oviparous) or give birth to live young (viviparous).
