Systematics is an important area in the biological sciences which deals with the diversity, variations and relationship among the living organisms. Which is often studied by means of scientific classification systems such as taxonomy. Taxonomy in biology is a branch of biology and deals with the classification in biology of all the living organism into different levels called as taxon. 

Today’s classification system has been evolved from the earlier but fundamental systems of classification which are two kingdom system and five kingdom system. Studying the biological profile of the the flora and fauna in terms of the genetics, molecular biology, physiology and biochemistry can open new avenues in the human welfare.

Welcome to your Systematics

Way back in the mid-19th century Gregor Mendel counted the number of peas with different morphological features like shape and seed coat colour. By counting the number of phenotypically different seeds and applying simple mathematics he could tell to the world that heritable character is determined by two FACTORS. Had he not used numbers to measure the probability of the…
