When deciphering an unknown species and classifying organisms taxonomist use biochemichal, chromosal information, and physical and structural information. Today taxonomist study chromosome structure, blood protein, and the way organism develop before they are born because physical apperance is not always a good way to classify an organism.

∙ 14y agoThere are a great number of questions that would go into this, but the 3 first questions would be:
Does it have a nucleus?
How does it obtain energy? (Another way to word this question would be "is it autotrophic, heterotrophic?")
Is it multicellular?

scientists have to answer these questions to determine what kingdom an organism belong in. or at least some of them, there are others.
