Hi Sai Nadh

It is defined as a process of giving hierarchy of categories by scientific procedure based on features of organisms and arranging them into different groups.

Need for Biological Classification:
• To study and include each organism along with its identification and habitat.
• To establish the relationship among different organisms and to know about their evolution.
