The structures of living organisms is very complex and very different from one organism to another; species are classified to group similar kind of living organisms through knowing about their metabolic and catabolic activities
This makes it less complex to study the developmenthistory and science of evaluation of living organisms on earth.
There are many ways in which you can classify an unknown species. To classify an unknown species you can compare it to similar species.
We will classify this new species as a mammal.How do you classify this, Mister Burns?
You can classify different species of animals based on their common characteristics, such as physical features or behaviors.
genus and species
Taxonomy
naming the species, grouping the species.. and more
Zebras and Horses are two different species. So when offspring is produced from a zebra and a horse it produces a cross-breed or hybrid. Hybrids are infertile and are hard to classify. They are hard to classify because they are both horse and zebra so it is hard to decide which species to classify them as.
The smallest group into which scientists classify living things is a species. A species is a group of organisms that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring.

Characteristics used to classify a species include physical traits, genetic differences, behavior, habitat, and evolutionary history. Scientists often use a combination of these characteristics to determine how species are related and place them into taxonomic groups.
Biologists classify organisms based on their shared characteristics and evolutionary relationships. They use a hierarchical system called taxonomy that groups organisms into categories such as kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. This classification system helps to organize and understand the diversity of life on Earth.
