Scientists repeat experiments and find no changes.
Scientists find similar evidence to previous work.

Which identifies the main purpose of biological taxonomy?
classify organisms by using common names for easy identification of species by scientists
create phylogenetic trees that organize species based only on physical characteristics
use a systematic method to name, organize, and show relationships among species
create common names that can be applied to multiple organisms found in different regions

Why is it important to classify the millions of species on Earth?
to have common names that everyone can remember
to more easily sequence their genetic material
to devise scientific names that only scientists can learn
to organize them and speak about them accurately
