5 0

I think some similarities and differences between the linnaean system of classification and cladistics is that they both rely on characteristics to classify organisms but cladistics are more precise. In Linnean taxonomy, species are grouped according to their appearances, while in cladistics, they are grouped according to the relative closeness of their gentic structure Cladistics is a system for hypothesizing an evolutionary tree and timeline, based on the characteristics shared between different organisms. However, there are some limitations of Linnaean Classification system is that it is based on appearance, DNA classifies more specifically, some may be related genetically but not physically.

How would you write this number in scientific notation? (Use the carrot key to denote an exponent. ex: 6.02 x 10^23)

NeTakaya

Answer:

$D=5.89\times 10^{12}\ km$

Explanation:

The distance to the Sun is 5,890,000,000,000. We need to write this distance in km.

A number can be written as $x.0\times 10^y$ in scientific notation where x is a real no and y is any integer.

There are 10 zeros in the given number and also there are 12 digits after. It would mean that,

$D=5.89\times 10^{12}\ km$

So, the distance in scientific notation is : $D=5.89\times 10^{12}\ km$
