classified. Advocates argue that, because proteins are more closely controlled by genes and less subjected to natural selection than the anatomical features, they are more reliable indicators of genetic relationships. The compounds studied most are proteins, amino acids, nucleic acids, peptides etc.

Physiology is the study of working of organs in a living being. Since working of the organs involves chemicals of the body, these compounds are called biochemical evidences. The study of morphological change has shown that there are changes in the structure of animals which result in evolution. When changes take place in the structure of a living organism, they will naturally be accompanied by changes in the physiological or biochemical processes.

John Griffith Vaughan was one of the pioneers of chemotaxonomy.

Biochemical Products: The body of any animal in the animal kingdom is made up of a number of chemicals. Of these, only a few biochemical products have been taken into consideration to derive evidence for evolution.

Protoplasm: Every living cell, from a bacterium to an elephant, from grasses to the blue whale, has protoplasm. Though the complexity and constituents of the protoplasm increases from lower to higher living organism, the basic compound is always the protoplasm. Evolutionary Significance: From this evidence, it is clear that all living things have a common origin point or a commo

Natural Products are delivered by all life forms yet are generally known from plants, creepy crawlies, growths, green growth and prokaryotes. These living beings exist together in biological communities and associate with one another in different manners by which science assumes a noteworthy job. These incorporate morphological arrangement, anatomical grouping and chemotaxonomic order.

The study of chemotaxonomy or compound scientific categorization is utilized for the grouping of plants based on their substance constituents. All the living life forms create optional metabolites that are gotten from essential metabolites. The concoction structure of the optional metabolites and their biosynthetic pathways is frequently explicit and limited to systematically related living beings and subsequently valuable in grouping. This technique for characterization is viewed as better in contrast with customary strategy because of the simplicity of working system. In this strategy for grouping, the materials to be broke down can be dried or pounded. The new or finish materials are not the obligatory requirements.The idea of chemotaxonomy has been explained in the previous century by De Candolle.
