SUMMARY In classification, organisms are grouped according to the
characteristics the organisms share. Classification lets scientists answer important questions about relationships between organisms.
The eight levels of classification are domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species

uses a series of paired descriptive statements.
