The BEST characteristic to use for classifying an unknown organism would be **bone structure**. Bone structure provides significant information about the organism's taxonomy, evolutionary relationships, and functional adaptations. Other factors like color, number of offspring, and age can be influenced by environmental conditions and may not provide reliable insights for classification purposes.
