Q. How would you choose between two characteristics to be used for developing a hierarchy in classification ?
Ans. The characteristics which are taken into account for developing a hierarchy in classification are:
(i) Whether cell has membrane-bound organelles present or not. Because such cells would have different biochemical pathways having an effect on every aspect of cell design.
(ii) Whether the cells occur singly or are they grouped together. Because this makes a very basic distinction in the body designs of organisms.
(iii) Whether organisms produce their own food (plants) or acquire it (animals).
In this way, we can build up a whole hierarchy of mutually related characteristics to be used for classification.
