Biological classification, or scientific classification in biology, is a method of scientific taxonomy used to group and categorize organisms into groups such as genus or species. These groups are known as taxa.
The term phylum is one of seven major categories that are used to classify organisms. In order of broad to specific. These seven categories are: Kingdom (broadest), Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species (most specific).This system of classification was developed in the 18th century by Carolus Linnaeus. phylum can be defined in two ways: as a group of organisms with a certain degree of structural or developmental similarity or a group of organisms with a certain degree of evolutionary relatedness. For plants Phylum is equivalent to the botanical term Division.
