A) It needs to provide a strictly limited system to reduce confusion and disarray.

C) It needs to loosely group similar organisms until all organisms are fully studied.


D) It must have enough categories to accommodate all future discoveries while retaining its original structure.

Answer:

Option B, It must be flexible enough to adapt to new discoveries and still provide a meaningful framework.

Explanation:

A taxonomic classification classifies an organism at species level based on their anatomical and morphological characteristics. So some times the characteristics of two or more organisms are found overlapping and therefore they all are placed in one species group but it was revealed at a later stage of research that these organism belong to a different class or group . In such scenarios a taxonomic classification system must be able to adopt such changes without disrupting the entire classification system.  

Also there must be scope of including organisms in the taxonomic classification that shall be discovered in future.  

hence, option B is correct

The subordinates are those employees that serve as the hands of the company because they are the ones who worked so hard for the achievement of the company's goals and visions.

What provides information about the body position with respect to gravity?​
patriot [66]

Answer:

Centre of Gravity

The centre of gravity (COG) of the human body is a hypothetical point around which the force of gravity appears to act. It is point at which the combined mass of the body appears to be concentrated[1]. Because it is a hypothetical point, the COG need not lie within the physical bounds of an object or person. One subjective way (there are objective measures) to approximate the COG of an object is to visualise it balancing on one finger.

Centre of Gravity in the Human Body

In the anatomical position, the COG lies approximately anterior to the second sacral vertebra. However, since human beings do not remain fixed in the anatomical position, the precise location of the COG changes constantly with every new position of the body and limbs. The bodily proportions of the individual will also affect the location of the COG.
