Taxonomy! This is a short list of the classification of living things, based on evolutionary relationships. The list gets more exclusive and specific as you move on.

Scientists rely on molecular and genetic similarities to classify organisms because these traits provide more accurate and precise data on evolutionary relationships. DNA and protein sequences reveal shared ancestry and allow for more detailed comparisons across a wide range of species, leading to a more reliable classification system. Additionally, molecular data help uncover hidden relationships that may not be apparent based solely on physical characteristics.
If a species is ecologically dominant, it dominates the biomass of the ecosystem (think big dipterocarp trees dominating a rainforest). These organisms influence the ecosystem due to their huge size or enormous number. Other organisms rely on these species and removing them often has a domino effect of local extinctions.
A group of organisms of different species living together in a particular place is called a community. An ecosystem is a community that interacts with the abiotic factors of their environment.
Convergent evolution can lead to quite different organisms evolving similar body structures. This makes it difficult for taxonomists to decide how the organisms should be classified.
The ecosystem is capable of mainting food for many species.
Scientists rely on molecular and genetic similarities to classify organisms because these similarities provide more accurate and precise information about evolutionary relationships between species. By comparing DNA sequences and molecular structures, scientists can determine the degree of relatedness between different organisms, leading to a more robust classification system based on evolutionary history.
Without a system of classification, it would be extremely difficult to organize and understand the vast diversity of living organisms. Scientists rely on classification to group similar organisms together based on their characteristics and evolutionary relationships. Without this system, studying and communicating about different species would be chaotic and confusing.

"Non obligate" refers to organisms or processes that do not rely on a particular condition or resource for survival or function. These organisms or processes can adapt to different conditions or resources as needed.
Organisms in a biome rely on abiotic factors like temperature, sunlight, water availability, and soil composition for their survival. These factors influence the type of species that can thrive in a particular environment, affecting things like their growth, reproduction, and overall health. Changes in abiotic factors can have significant impacts on the biodiversity and distribution of organisms within a biome.
All organisms rely on chemicals to survive. Water is a chemical.
Most plants.

Organisms are classified to determine their ancestry, evolutionary process, relation to other species, and genetic information. This is very important information that is needed to better understand how life forms were created and to help scientific research maintain accurate studies.
yes
all heterotrophes
The only species that has to rely on currency to survive - is humans !
