Classification organizes both living and non-living things into categories based on shared characteristics. In the living world, organisms are classified into groups like species, genus, and family, aiding in understanding biodiversity. In the non-living world, objects or substances are classified by properties such as composition, state, or function, which helps in organizing knowledge and facilitating scientific study.
