“Classification of organisms is done while considering many factors such as:
Cell type- whether the organism is prokaryotic or eukaryotic
Cell structure- This includes both the presence and composition of the cell wall
Body type- whether the organism is multicellular or unicellular
Mode of nutrition- the method through which the organism achieves its nutritional requirement, by consuming other organisms (heterotroph) or making its own food (autotroph)”.
