Classification

Scientists classify organisms based on characteristics that they can see. We read about classification of vertebrates in science class. The different classifications are: mammal, reptile, amphibian, bird, and fish.

Suppose you were walking on the field at PE and found an organism on the ground. Being curious you wondered what it was. You noticed it had no fur and no legs. What prediction could you make? Why? What other information would you need to know exactly what the organism was?
