Right now, I am in college for climatology, but before I decided on climatology, I was taking classes in Meteorology, the study of weather. So, I will answer your question. All meteorologists like to be right, but since the weather is so spontaneous, it is really hard to be right. Meteorologists use percentages because it helps them be professional. Also, because, different parts of the region where they are may or may not get the rain. I don't know where you are from, but I will use my hometown. In McAlester, Oklahoma, there may be a 70% chance of rain, but in another part of the region at Tulsa, Oklahoma ( which is 91 miles north of McAlester) there may be a 40% chance of rain. The difference in the percentages can vary from how stable the environment is, altitude, location, and terrain. That is two of the reasons why Meteorologists use percentages to predict weather.

You are on vacation and see an organism that you do not recognize. discuss what possible steps you can take to classify it.

bija089 [108]

Taxonomy is the branch of Science, in which we study the Classification of Organisms. On discovering an unknown organism, begin classification by looking for anatomical features that appear to have the same function as those found on other species.

In order to correctly classify an organism, scientists use many modern tools.

1.Morphology describes the physical characteristics of an organism. Typically, this is enough information to place the organism within a domain and kingdom.

2.DNA and biochemical analysis allow scientists to test less visible, but distinguishing, characteristics.

3.Comparing embryology allows scientists to group organisms that share common fetal development.

4.Evolutionary phylogeny describes the evolutionary relationships between organisms.These relationships are deduced based on shared traits that may have been passed from ancestor to new species. Traits may include physical traits (ex. presence of jaws), or may be genetic traits (shared genes).
