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

⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠One fossil is found in a deeper layer of rock than another one. How is this evidence of change over time of living things
Mademuasel [1]
Some of the evidence comes from fossils, and some comes from studies that show how similar living things are to one another. By the 1930s, scientists had also learned about genes. As a result, they could finally explain how characteristics of organisms could pass from one generation to the next and change over time

What factor determines when an animal species will enter an ecosystem in succession? a. minerals b. food availability c. competi
Karolina [17]

The correct answer is (C) competition which determines the succession of an animal in the ecosystem.

<h3>What factors influence when an animal species enters a successional ecosystem?</h3>

Interaction and competition among species in a certain environment is a biotic element of ecological primary succession. When succession begins and the first species, known as pioneer species, alter the environmental structure, new species that are more tolerant of the new conditions move in.

These communities gradually replace one another until a "climax community"—such as a mature forest—is attained or a disturbance, such as a fire, occurs.
