Will fan & medal :) Which of the following best compares Aristotle's method of classifying organisms to Linnaeus's classification system?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a. Aristotle categorized organisms as either plant or animal, while Linnaeus sorted them based on size. b. Aristotle created a hierarchy of life based on complexity, while Linnaeus sorted organisms based on physical traits. c. Aristotle cataloged only animals and divided them into carnivores and herbivores, while Linnaeus sorted both plants and animals based on habitat. d. Aristotle classified organisms based on geographic location, while Linnaeus sorted them based on their method of obtaining food and nutrients.

Hello @ninaesb ! Which do you think it is? Why or why not? It would be easier to tutor you if you explained what about the question is giving you trouble.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think B , but im not sure. i dont even remember learning about this honestly .

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Aristotle represented the evolution of complex organisms from simple to complex in the form of a ladder which is called as Scala Nature or ladder

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Carl linnaeus used physical traits like stamens, pistils, kind of heart, wthr organism breathes by gills or lungs etc to classify organisms

thanks (:The genomes of three species of mouse are being sequenced, and a particular DNA sequence found in all three species is found to have a steady mutation rate. The sequence of interest for these three species is shown below. Species A: ATTCGGATTATTCGAGG Species B: GTCCGGTTCATTGGACA Species C: ATCCAGATCGTTCGTGG Which of the following inferences can be made, based on this information?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a. Species B and Species C most likely diverged from Species A since they both have more mutations than Species A. b. Species B most likely evolved from Species C since they are closest to each other in terms of number of mutations. c. Species A and Species C most likely share the most recent common ancestor since they differ by the fewest mutations. d. Species C most likely diverged from Species A more recently than Species B since Species C has fewer mutations than Species B.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

wait....uh need to post them as new one. Its agaist COC

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh im sorry i didnt know
