A dichotomous key is a tool used for identifying organisms or objects by presenting a series of choices that lead the user through a structured pathway based on observable traits. Each step provides two contrasting options, guiding the user to the next set of choices until the correct identification is reached. This systematic approach helps simplify the identification process, making it easier to distinguish between similar species or items. Users follow the key by observing characteristics and making selections accordingly.
