The first scientist to classify animals based on observable features (if that's what you're asking) was Aristotle. He divided all the animals into three main categories: those that run, those that swim, and those that fly. He also divided those genres into subcategories, but I don't have any information for you about the specifics. If you're wondering who invented the modern system of taxonomy, I'm fairly certain it evolved over many centuries from Aristotle's original system. There are probably many scientists who have transformed and revised it over time.
Linnaeus used physical characteristics such as morphology, anatomy, and reproductive structures to place organisms into groups and subgroups. He also considered the number of stamens and pistils in plants and the teeth and jaw structure in animals to classify them.
Linnaeus developed two primary groups for classifying organisms: genus and species. The genus is a broader category that includes one or more species that are closely related, while the species is the specific group of organisms that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring. This binomial nomenclature system provides a standardized way to name and categorize living organisms.
Linnaeus used a ranked system of groups to organize and classify organisms based on their similarities and differences. This hierarchical system helped scientists categorize and understand the diverse range of species in the natural world. It also allowed for easier identification and comparison among different organisms.
In the Linnaeus system, organisms within the same class contain similar phyla. Classes are one taxonomic rank above phyla and encompass groups of organisms that share similar characteristics and evolutionary relationships.
Before Linnaeus, organisms were grouped based on observable similarities, such as size, shape, and behavior. This led to a system of classification known as the "artificial system," where organisms were classified based on overall resemblance rather than shared evolutional history.

Evolutionary classification groups organisms based on their shared evolutionary history and genetic relationships, while Linnaeus's system of classification is based on observable physical features and similarities. Evolutionary classification reflects the understanding that all organisms are related through common ancestry, while Linnaeus's system focuses on organizing organisms into hierarchical categories based on shared physical characteristics.
Linnaeus used physical characteristics such as morphology, anatomy, and reproductive structures to place organisms into groups and subgroups. He also considered the number of stamens and pistils in plants and the teeth and jaw structure in animals to classify them.
Linnaeus classified organisms by organism's genetic similarities and differences. He also created a system called Binomial Nomenclature, which is the system in which all organisms are classified in a scientific name, and put into groups.
Linnaeus based most of his classification system on physical characteristics and reproductive structures of organisms. He classified organisms into hierarchical groups based on similarities in these features, leading to the development of the modern system of taxonomy.

Linnaeus would likely ask questions about the organism's physical characteristics, habitat, reproductive methods, and behavior to determine its classification. He would focus on features that are consistent within a group of organisms and distinguish them from other groups, helping him place the organism into the appropriate taxonomic category.

yes Carl Linnaeus, or Carl von Linné (after being dubbed to knighthood in 1753 by king Adolph Fredrik of Sweden. In 1761 he was raised to the nobility and took the name von Linné.) was a botanist. His method of hierarchical classification and custom of binomial nomenclature is the basis for current day taxonomies. See the related article.
