Diversity in Living Organisms

There are as many as 8.2 million species that live on earth. This only contributes to 15% of the known species. We are yet to classify and discover the remaining 85% of the species population. In such a vast world, it is practically impossible to make a count of every living creature that is a part of the biodiversity. Hence, to make this study of biodiversity simple, scientists classify these organisms, based on their characteristics, habitat, and many other factors. Let us learn what are these classifications.
