Between 2000 and 2013, fatalities from measles decreased by approximately 75%.

<h3>What do you mean by Measles?</h3>

Measles may be defined as an acute and highly contagious viral disease that is commonly caused by a single-stranded RNA virus known as measles virus.

Fatalities caused by measles in 2000 = 582,800

Fatalities caused by measles in 2013 = 145,700

Total differnce = 437100.

Now, the percentage = 437100/582800 ×100 = 75%.

Therefore, between 2000 and 2013, fatalities from measles decreased by approximately 75%.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

<em>As scientists learned more about genetics and biochemistry , some organisms were moved out of existing kingdoms and into new ones.</em>

Explanation:

As the researches in the scientific world continued, scientists realized that there were, in fact, many genetic diversities present in organisms which were placed in the same groups. Hence, they realized that due to these differences these organisms should not be kept in the same group. As a result, the groups in the classification system increased.

Carolus Linnaeus just grouped organisms based on their features. But today, scientists classify organisms based on various perspectives such as the evolutionary history, genetic similarities etc.
