The Living World
- The living world includes a vast variety of living organisms like plants, animals, and even microorganisms that exist on the earth.
- These organisms also differ in size, color, habitat, physiology, and morphology.
- Biologists have developed certain rules and principles supplementary which are helpful in the identification, nomenclature, and classification of organisms.
- Such rules and principles lie in Taxonomy.
- The taxonomic studies are very helpful and useful in specific fields like forestry, industry, agriculture, and for knowing our bio-resources.
- All discovered living organisms are being named so that they are known by the same name throughout the world.
- Each biological name is a collection of a generic name indicating the genus of an organism and a specific name that indicates the species.
