'''Scientific Classification''' is the method by which [[Biology|biologists]] group and categorize species of organisms. All species of life are classified in a ranked hierarchy, starting with [[Domain]]s, which are then divided into [[Kingdom]]s. Kingdoms are divided into [[Phylum|Phyla]] (singular: ''phylum''), which are further divided into [[Class (Taxonomy)|Classes]], and they, in turn, into [[Order (Taxonomy)|Orders]], [[Family (Taxonomy)|Families]], [[Genus|Genera]] (singular: ''genus''), and [[Species]]. The ranks below species are, in [[zoology]], [[Subspecies]] and [[Morph]], and in [[botany]], [[Variety]] (''varietas'') and [[Form]] (''forma'').
