They use radiometry and pyrometry
NASA uses the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satelite (TESS) telescope that employes this technology
This telescope measures the brightness/luminosity of stars. When this brightness drops regularly, every more or less in the same number of years, then there is the likelihood of a planet orbiting the star. The dip in brightness of the star is directly proportional to the size of the planet and the distance between the star and the orbiting planet.
Answer:
It is important to have a standardized system of classification so people can easily identify different things. It allows scientists to identify, name and group different organisms. It is important so scientists are able to easily communicate about different organisms without confusion.
It is necessary to classify organisms because: It helps in the identification of living organisms as well as in understanding the diversity of living organisms. Classification helps us to learn about different kinds of plants and animals, their features, similarities and differences
if Linnaeus had not developed the taxonomy system there would be no organized way of naming or categorizing new organisms in the scientific community and around the world. Instead, all organisms would be categorized differently in every part of the world, with different names.if Linnaeus had not developed the taxonomy system there would be no organized way of naming or categorizing new organisms in the scientific community and around the world.

Explanation:
The Bacillus genus is usually negative in regards for the Oxidase test.
The ocean and the present atmosphere themselves are not leftovers from the original atmosphere of Earth. However, they do contain components within them that give us and scientists ideas of what Earth's past atmosphere was like.
Some example include:
1) Ice cores - scientists may go to Antartica or Alaska and stick this metal tube into the ice to remove what is known as an "ice core". This is then taken back to the lab for analysis. So what happens is that this ice as we know is constantly melting and freezing with different seasons and climate change. So, when the ice starts to crystallize, particles like carbon dioxide, sulfur etc may get trapped as bubbles in the ice. This is what scientists look for in ice coring and this is how they know that Carbon dioxide levels were relatively high back then (Not as high compared to now).
2) Ocean sediment cores - this is the exact same process of the ice cores except they take cores of sediments (esspecially calcium carbonate that contains oxygen). As you know, CaCO3 is found in the exoskeletons of organisms that die and build up on the ocean floor.
Those are some of the main ways that the present atmosphere and oceans have leftovers from the original atmosphere of Earth.
Hope that helped!
