diversity found in living organisms is a result of

Introduction - Every organism whether plant or animal is unique in itself. There is a wide diversity in the flora (plants) and fauna (animals) in the world. The diversity we see today is the result of 3.5 billion years of organic evolution. During t..

Question 1 - Question: What is the necessity of classification of organisms? Answer: Organic evolution has been taking place for 3.5 billion years. It is impossible to study every living organism from an individual level. Therefore, classification is necessar..

More than a million species of living organisms have been discovered and described so far and a large number of them are yet to be discovered. Scientists involved in this task, called taxonomists, estimate that there may be around 30 million species of living ..

Summary - Biologists estimate that there are about 30 million species of living organisms inhabiting this biosphere and only a million and half of it have been discovered and described so far. The species of plants and animals identified so far exhibit a great deal of variation ..

Chemical evolution resulted in the formation of life on earth about 3.8 billion years ago. The primitive cells that resulted from this process gradually gave rise to primitive forms of organisms such as bacteria, algae, fungi and protozoan. These organisms in..

Summary - In the modern system of classification, living organisms are grouped under five kingdoms, as proposed by Whittaker (1966). The Kingdom Monera includes bacteria and blue green algae, both of which possess prokaryotic cells. Bacteria are unicellular prokaryotes that have..
