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

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Hello!

The answer is ventricular diastole.

Explanation:

Tricuspid Valve Stenosis:

Tricuspid Valve Stenosis is the narrowing or stenosis of the tricuspid valve located between the right atrium and right ventricle.

This is a rare heart disease that can be caused by infective endocarditis and rheumatic fever.

This condition entails restricted blood flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle. Untreated cases can result in an enlarged or hypertrophied atrium and a smaller ventricle.

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

A proximate cause is an event which is closest to, or immediately responsible for causing, some observed result. This exists in contrast to a higher-level ultimate cause (or distal cause) which is usually thought of as the "real" reason something occurred.
