It allows different kinds of organisms to be easily identified based on their characteristics

Explanation:

Classification is defined as the grouping of organisms based on their similarities and dissimilarities. The main aim of classification is to simplify the study of vast range of animals that exist in nature.

The scientists use a standardized method in which they follow a set of rules while studying and assigning a taxonomic rank to a newly studied organism.

The taxonomic hierarchy includes the following taxon-Kingdom, phylum,class, order, family, genus, species.

Beginning from Kingdom the percentage of similarities among the members keep on increasing while we move towards  species.

A taxonomical rank is assigned to an organism by studying the similarities of that organism with already existing members of that taxonomic group.

Since, few characters are already studied well while classifying the earlier members the study and classification of new organism becomes much simplified and easier.

What are at least three differences between apes and humans in the cranium and teeth?
Mama L [17]
 The following are key characteristics of ape skulls that human skulls do not have:

(1) Prognathic Jaws: A chimpanzee’s maxilla (upper jaw) and mandible (lower jaw) protrude significantly. Typically, the bone from the nose to the tip of upper teeth extrudes out at about a 45 degree angle, whereas a line drawn from the nose to the chin of a typical human is vertical or concave.

(2) Large Brow Ridges above the eye sockets. Humans have negligible brow ridges.

(3) Absent or small laid back forehead: Apes lack significant vertical foreheads. Humans have large vertical foreheads, which provide room for the much larger frontal lobeof our brains. This is an important difference, as the large frontal lobe of the human brain allows us the ability to make decisions and solve problems. It also controls our behaviors, voluntary movements, emotions, and consciousness. Without a forehead, an animal would not have room for a large frontal lobe, and could not perform functions that differentiate animals from humans. The ability to make tools, improve on them, and the ability to remember how to make them, wouldn’t be possible without a forehead and large frontal lobe.

(4) Small Ovoid or Flat Cranium that houses their much smaller brains. Human adult craniums are about two to three times the volume of ape craniums. Ape craniums are narrower than the lateral extents of the eye sockets, whilst human craniums are far wider then the outer extend of their eye sockets.
