Hi

Aristotle was the first to propose biological classification of plants and animals


REASON / EXPLANATION

Aristotle was the first to attempt a scientific basis of classification .

He used morphological characters to classify plants into 3 groups as

  • trees,
  • shrubs, and
  • herbs.


He classified the animals into 2 groups depending upon presence or absence of RBC:

  • Enaima (with red blood)
  • Anaima (without red blood)

Thank you
