Answer 1

We use the classification system when grouping organisms, which are very diverse. The sub-group with the least amount of diversity is the species. The measure of diversity in this classification will of the variation in genome and physical characteristics. The species have a slight variation in the genome and phenotype compared to the amount of variation in a genus, where related species are clubbed together. The amount of diversity increases from the nodes of a classification tree to its root or parent (kingdom).
