a)a) Recognition of dissimilar organism Recognition of dissimilar organism easier if we can put them in easier if we can put them in predefined categoriespredefined categories

b) Grouping allows us to make b) Grouping allows us to make predictionprediction
•Looks different•But distinguishing features group them together•Mammals: give birth
How to group living How to group living organism??organism??
