How did Darwin's theory of evolution change the way biologists thought about classification?

Listing characteristics that distinguish one species from another has the effect of making it appear that the species and their distinctive attributes are fixed and eternal. We must always keep in mind that they were brought about by evolutionary processes that operated not merely at some time in the distant past, but which continue to operate in the present and can be expected to give rise to new forms in the future. Species are always changing.

Is the fiollowing sentence true or false Darwin's theory of evolution changed the way biologists thought about classification?
True. With the theory of evolution by natural selection the new science of biology ( at the publication of On The Origin biologists were still naturalists ) could now see that all organisms were related in a nested hierarchy of classification.
Is this statement true or false Darwin's theory of evolution changed the way biologists thought about classification?
Darwin's work changed virtually everything about how biologists approach their work. But the main structure (kingdon phylum class order family genus species) of the system stayed intact.

What scientist whose ideas about evolution were the same as Darwins?
Almost the same, at least Darwin thought so. Alfred Russel Wallace.
Did the theory of evolution change the way that biologists thought about classification?
Yes, it most certainly did. Since common descent became fact, biologists mostly classify organisms not by their place in the nested hierarchies, but by their descent. Although, interestingly, it was the first attempts to systematically classify life, by Carl Linnaeus, that provided the key insights leading eventually to the thesis of common descent, as formulated by Charles Darwin.
