Aristotle's classification system was based on morphology and behavior, grouping organisms by similarities in structure and function. Linnaeus's classification system, on the other hand, focused on organizing organisms based on their physical characteristics and reproductive organs. While Aristotle's system was more subjective and based on observations, Linnaeus's system was more systematic and laid the foundation for modern taxonomy.
Aristotle's classification system was based on characteristics such as habitat and behavior, while Linnaeus's system used physical characteristics like anatomy and structure. Linnaeus also introduced a hierarchical classification system with binomial nomenclature that is still widely used in biology today.
The system of Aristotle used the habitat and physical structure of an organism to classify it. Linnaeus also used the physical structure of an organism to classify it, but he also took into account the structural similarities of different organisms in classifying them.
Carolus Linnaeus used Binomial Nomenclature to classify organisms, It is still used today. He named around 400 species which was a lot for him, other scientists may classify about 2,000.

The system of Aristotle used the habitat and physical structure of an organism to classify it. Linnaeus also used the physical structure of an organism to classify it, but he also took into account the structural similarities of different organisms in classifying them.
Aristotle initially divided living organisms only into two groups which are plants and animals. The system was not proven to be good because there were too many species of plants and animals. However, the system was used for 2000 until the time of Linnaeus.
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.
The system that we still use today for giving scientific names to plants and animals has many founders, from the Greek philosopher Aristotle to the Swedish physician and botanist Carolus Linnaeus. It was Aristotle who first introduced the two key concepts of taxonomy as we practice it today: classification of organisms by type and binomial definition.
No, taxonomy was around before Linnaeus. (Aristotle I think is credited with making taxonomy a science, but I cannot be sure.) However, Linnaeus did create the system of taxonomy upon which the current system is based (i.e. the binomial nomenclature and heirarchical classification system).
Latin was the official language at the time of Aristotle and Linnaeus. It is now a dead language and if changed will create great confusion to nomenclature worldwide. It is a neutral language and has no political alignment.
Linnaeus's contribution to taxonomy was that he expanded on Aristotle's ideas of classification. Like Aristotle, Linnaeus used observations as the basis of his system. He wrote descriptions of organisms in groups based on their observable features. Linnaeus also used his observations to devise a naming system for organisms. In Linnaeus's naming system, called binomial nomenclature, each organism is given a two-part name.

Carl Linnaeus is often considered the father of modern taxonomy for his work in developing a system to classify and name organisms. His binomial naming system (genus and species) is still used today, providing a standardized way to identify and study all living organisms. Linnaeus's contributions revolutionized the field of biology by providing a framework for organizing and understanding the diversity of life on Earth.
