The pictures below show three organisms that Yolanda found outside.

Question

Based on the Linnaean system of classification, how would these organisms be organized?
A.
They would be classified differently, because they each start with different letters.

B.
They would be classified together, because they all have cells of the same size.

C.
They would be classified differently, because they belong to different kingdoms.

D.
They would be classified together, because they were all found in the same area.

Answer 1

The best answer based on the Linnaean system of classification is:

C. They would be classified differently, because they belong to different kingdoms.

In the Linnaean classification system, organisms are grouped into different kingdoms based on fundamental characteristics such as cellular structure, reproduction, and nutritional methods. Since the organisms Yolanda found may belong to different kingdoms (e.g., animals, plants, fungi, or bacteria), they would be classified differently based on these distinctions rather than starting letters, size of cells, or their location.
