Taxonomy is a system for organising, categorising, and identifying items in a hierarchical structure based on shared features. This system is referred to as a classification system. It is a central idea in a variety of disciplines, including biology, library science, and information management, among others. The origin of the word “taxonomy” can be traced back to two Greek words: “taxis,” which means arrangement, and “nomia,” which means technique.
Taxonomy is the scientific study of recognising, describing, classifying, and naming species, which might include plants, animals, and bacteria. It is part of the field of biology. The physical and genetic properties of an organism are used in conjunction with a hierarchical classification system by biologists to place an organism into one of several groups. The Linnaean classification system is a taxonomy system that categorises creatures into kingdoms, phyla, classes, orders, families, genera, and species. This system has gained widespread recognition over the years.
