Scientist classifies these objects based on their sizes, shapes, compositions, and orbits. The major categories include dwarf planets, comets, asteroids, and meteoroids.

That would be difficult to explain. -- The Sun IS a star. -- It IS in my solar system. -- It's the ONLY star in my solar system. -- So the sun is THE star in my solar system.
There is no blood type known as type Z. The ABO blood group system classifies blood as A, B, AB, or O based on the presence or absence of antigens.
The anatomical system classifies the structure and function of the body based on various levels of organization, from cells to tissues, organs, and systems. Each level has specific roles: cells are the basic units of life, tissues are groups of similar cells performing a common function, organs are structures made of different tissues working together, and organ systems consist of multiple organs that collaborate to perform complex functions. This hierarchical organization allows for a detailed understanding of how anatomical structures relate to their physiological roles.
the hornbostel
In the Sachs- Hornbostel system there are five categories of instruments based on the physical characteristics of sound. The chordophones are instruments with strings stretched between fixed points. Aerophones are instruments that use air as primary source of vibrations. Membranophones are instruments that vibrate by means of tightly stretched skins. Idiophones are instruments that are sounded by the instrument itself. Electrophones is the last category that was added due to the advancement of technology.
The Hornbostel-Sachs system is a widely used classification for musical instruments, developed by Erich Moritz von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs in the early 20th century. It categorizes instruments into four main groups: idiophones (self-sounding), membranophones (sound produced by vibrating membranes), chordophones (string instruments), and aerophones (wind instruments). Ancient instruments can be classified within this framework; for example, the lyre is a chordophone, while the shofar is an aerophone. This system helps in understanding the diversity and cultural significance of ancient musical instruments across different civilizations.
The Hornbostel-Sachs system classifies musical instruments into four main categories based on how they produce sound: idiophones (self-sounding instruments like bells), membranophones (instruments that produce sound via vibrating membranes, such as drums), chordophones (string instruments that generate sound through vibrating strings, like violins), and aerophones (instruments that produce sound by vibrating air, such as flutes). Each category can be further subdivided based on specific characteristics, allowing for a comprehensive classification of diverse musical instruments from different cultures. This system provides a structured way to understand and compare instruments across the world.
Erich Moritz von Hornbostel was an Austrian ethnomusicologist and Curt Sachs was a German ethnomusicologist. together they devised the Hornbostel-Sachs music instrument classification system around about 1914.
Taxonomy.
Using the Hornbostel-Sachs system of instrument classification, it is a plucked chordophone.
A 'membranophone' is an instrument with a membrane or skin, such as the drum. The sound is produced by the vibration of the membrane/skin. Membranophones are not stringed instruments. 'Membranophone' is the African term for instruments with membranes. 'Chordophones' is the African term for instruments with strings.
The chordophone is a class of musical instruments that produce sound primarily through the vibration of strings. This class includes instruments such as violins, guitars, and harps. Chordophones can be further categorized into different types based on their construction and how the strings are played, such as bowed, plucked, or struck. They are one of the four main categories in the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system, which organizes instruments based on their sound production methods.
Linguistic typology studies and classifies languages based on their structural features. Linguistic typology is a subfield of linguistics, which is the scientific study of language.
