Early philosophers believed that the huge variety of different organisms that exist on earth were created by a supreme being (i.e. a god) and that they were IMMUTABLE (they could not change)
=CLASSIFICATION= = = ====The process of organising organisms into groups based on predetermined criteria is called classification. The classification of living things is said to be a strong, multilevel classification. Strong, because the scheme gives predictable results. Multilevel because major groupings may be further subdivided into smaller sub groups.====

====The criterion we use to assign organisms to groups is the closeness of the evolutionary relationships between members of the group. This is usually observed by looking at the number of features shared by organisms when we compare them. Features that might be used when looking to group organisms could include :====

1. Physical structures (e.g. anatomy of bones, teeth, organs .etc.) 2. biochemistary (e.g. protein similarities) 3. Manner of development 4. Behavioural characteristics 5. Similarities in DNA
