In the biological classification we looked at the broad classification of living organisms under the system proposed by Whittaker 1969.
Which suggested the five kingdom.
• algae ,bryophytes, pteridophytes ,gymnosperms and angiosperms under plantae.
✓ gross superficial morphological based mananiy on vegetative characters on the the roecium structure system given by Linnaeus such system are artificial.
✓ artificial system are gave equal weightages to vegetative and sexual characteristics this is not capable since we know that often the vegetative characters are more easily affected by environments.
✓ external features but also internal features like ultra structure anatomy embryology and phytochemistry such as classification for flowering plants was given by George Bentham and Joseph delton hooker.
✓ phylogenetic classification system based on evolutionary relationship.
✓ same taxa having a common and ancestors.
✓ Numerical taxonomy which is number and course are assigned to all the characters and the data.
✓ cytotaxonomy is based on the site or logical information like the chromosome number structure behaviour.
✓ chemo taxonomy that uses the chemical constituents of the plants.
