Answer 1

Answer:

Taxonomy is the practice of identifying different organisms, classifying them into categories and naming them.

So, the first step in taxonomy would be identification.

We would first identify the organisms, classify them, note down their characteristics and then give the scientific names.

So, the correct order would be-

          1) Identification

          2) Classification

          3) Characterization

          4) Nomenclature
