Answer 2

Animals are classified on the basis of  their similarities and differences.

Explanation:

• Organisms are organized by the taxonomic classification method which was proposed by Carolus Linnaeus.

• The taxonomic group of classification contains seven levels on the basis of which organisms are classified. The organisms having the most similarities have more common levels in between them.

• The seven levels of classification are:

1. Kingdom
2. Phylum
3. Class
4. Order
5. Family
6. Genus
7. Species

• The organisms showing similarities will have a more common ancestor in the recent past.
