Classification systems previously were having very different goals than modern classification systems. If we look at old eras, scientists like Aristotle and Theophrastus tried to classify organisms on the basis of apparent characteristics, habitat and simple other traits.
Old classification systems had alot of errors and flaws. For example they classified fish and whale in one group because they lived in water, now we know fish is amphibian while whale is mammal.
So we can say that the goal o earlier classification system were just to make groups of organisms on the basis of External features.
Goal of modern classification system:
Modern classification approach was started by Linnaeus. It focuses more on biological delimitation and evolutionary histories than mere external characteristics. It organizes organisms in groups in such a way that grouping reflects their evolutionary relatedness. It is not just specie level but also focuses on sub-specie and population level classification.
Thus modern goal is better in many terms and is more reliable than old classification goals.

Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll which is what makes plants green. Onions are not green because they do not contain chloroplasts. The reason they do not have chloroplasts is because in the chloroplast, photosynthesis takes place. A key player in the process of photosynthesis is the sun. The onion itself grows underground which means while they grow they do not come into contact with the sun so chloroplasts in an onion is pointless since they can’t undergo photosynthesis. Hope I helped!

He begins by discussing how horizontal transfer can move genetic material between bacteria. Transformation, transduction, and conjugation in bacteria are all included. He also explains how crossing over, random assortment, and random fertilization can maintain genetic variation in eukaryotes.
Answer: The space between the sun and Earth contains no matter.
Explanation:
MODES OF HEAT TRANSFER
1. Conduction: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct contact between the two objects.
2. Convection: This type of heat transfer happens when there is a movement of fluid (liquid or gas).
3. Radiation: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct transfer of energy through space.
Thus convection can not take place between earth and sun as there is no liquid or gas present for movement of heat. The heat is transferred from sun to earth by radiation as it occurs through space.
