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.

Objectives of Classification are quite similar to needs of biological classification. There are basically three types of Biological Classification which can be categorized as artificial, natural and phylogenetic.
