Yes, classification system is still evolving together with our knowledge.

But, before changing the name (e.g. of a species) it is important to collect and gather a wealth of information in order to support that change. Classification system is still evolving. The reasons for the changes are DNA analyzes. It is the new way for discovering relation between organisms and put them in the right context (classification used to be based on morphological characteristics).

Change in classification can be shown in an example of fungi. In the 90s fungi classification included only phyla Chytridiomycota and Zygomycota. Now theyhave been classified mainly on the basis of characteristics of their sexual reproductive structures. So, there are 7 phyla now: Microsporidia, Chytridiomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Neocallimastigomycota, Glomeromycota, Ascomycota, and Basidiomycota

Evolution acts upon the population of organisms and not on each individual organism
Marina86 [1]

Evolution can be defined as the process of changes in the genetic pool of a population over time. The process of natural selection operates the evolution of any population. Evolution acts upon a whole population instead upon on single individual. A single individual doesn't evolve, instead ratios of the genetic types within a population changes when it is evolving, and eventually, complete evolution occurs.

Hence, the given answer is 'true'.

Muscles in animals are often found in pairs, because
babunello [35]
I'm not sure how exactly you wanted this question to be answered. You're either talking about the symmetry where animals would have two legs or two arms for example and thus producing a pair of each muscle on both sides of the body, or you're refering to the development of agonistic and antaonistic muscles where each of them served a different purpose; either extending or contracting.
