Answer: we classify organisms to group living beings who share the same characteristics or who have common attributes

Explanation: So, since the late '60s and based on the proposal of the researcher Robert Whittaker, most biologists group living beings into 5 large groups called Kingdoms, based mainly on three characteristics:

* type of cell,

* number of cells in each organism and

* the way of obtaining energy.

As a result, we could have 5 kingdoms; and these kingdoms are:

Monera, represented by the microorganisms of prokaryotic type known colloquially as "bacteria"

-Fungi, represented by mushrooms

-Plantae, the kingdom of the plants

-Animalia, the kingdom of the animals, and

-Protist, a very diverse group of organisms of eukaryotic type.

What does the number of electrons on the outer energy level of an atom tell you

adell [148]

Well, first off it tells you the number of valence electrons (because that’s what those are valence electrons) it also tells you how that atom is going to bond with other atoms (whether it will tend to loose or gain electrons when in chemical bonds). It also can show how reactive an element is (if it has eight or in some cases two then it won’t react because that outer shell is full)...basically it tells you the chemical properties of that atom

The most important estrogen is estradiol and the most important androgen is

Pie

<span>The most important estrogen is estradiol and the most important androgen is testosterone.</span>
Testosterone is the primary steroid male sex hormone. Its function is to control the development of male reproductive tissues, to promote secondary sexual characteristics to maintain health (the prevention of osteoporosis for example). It is synthesized from cholesterol and it achieves its effects by binding to androgen receptors on different tissues.

If you were going to use morphology, which of these animals would you think is most related to a hawk: a shark, a bat, or an all

Sauron [17]

Hi, In my opinion, bat will be the most closely related to hawk.

Why?

This is because, when we consider the photo of a bat and a hawk, we notice the similarities like:-

• Wings- They have nearly the same short wings decreasing the area of contact with air and enabling higher flight area.

• Presence of small snouted beak-like structure and presence of less or more similar color.

• Both live in trees and are normally not companiable with humans.

• Hawks and bats are both having a similar anatomy, not body, I meant that they have similar positioning of organs like stomach, pancreas etc.

• They have the sense of locating prey miles away, enabling easier locating of food.

Hope this helps...
