Show transcript
Taxonomy is the science of naming, describing and grouping all living things. Scientists have improved classification of organisms over time as they've been able to make more accurate observations. Carl Linnaeus is most famous for creating a system of naming living things. His ideas on classification have influenced generations of biologists during, and after, his own lifetime. His system for naming and classifying living things is still used today.
