❤The kind of cells that living organisms are made up of is a more basic characteristic for Classifying organisms, than on the basis of their habitat.❤
❤This is because on the basis of the kind of cells, we can Classify all living organisms into eukaryotes and prokaryotes.❤
❤On the other hand, a habitat or the place where an organism lives is a very broad characteristic to be used as the basis for Classifying organisms.❤
❤ For example, animals that live on land include earthworms, mosquitoes, butterfly, rats, elephants, tigers, etc. ❤
❤These animals do not resemble each other except for the fact that they share a common habitat.❤
❤Therefore, the nature or kind of a cell is considered to be a fundamental characteristic for the Classification of living organisms.❤
