Scientists use classification to group organisms logically, making it easier to study life's diversity. Taxonomy assigns universally accepted names to organisms using binomial nomenclature. Carolus Linnaeus developed this system, organizing organisms into species, genus, family, order, class, phylum

Carl Linnaeus revolutionized taxonomy by classifying numerous animals in his work Systema Naturae. Charles Darwin's evolutionary theory proposed that all species evolve from a common ancestor through natural selection. The cell theory, proposed by Schwann and Schleiden in 1838, established cells as
