Taxonomy

Real World Example

Imagine trying to organize a messy closet where everything is jumbled together, making it hard to find your favorite sweater. Just like organizing that closet into sections for shirts, pants, and accessories, taxonomy helps scientists categorize and name organisms systematically. By grouping organisms into categories like kingdom, phylum, and species, taxonomy brings order to the chaos of nature, similar to how organizing your closet makes it easier to find and identify each item.
