Carolus Linnaeus believed that species remained fixed in the form in which they had been created. Linnaeus would have been uncomfortable with ________. a hierarchical classification scheme nested, increasingly inclusive categories of organisms taxonomy phylogenies.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Phylogeny.

Explanation:

Classification may be defined as the process of classifying the organisms into same or different groups depending on their similarities and differences. Carolus Linnaeus is known as the father of taxonomy.

Carolus believes in the fixity of species but the statement proves wrong as the species evolve with time. Linnaeus had been uncomfortable with the phylogeny or the evolution of the organism. His idea of the fixity of species is in contradiction with the phylogeny.

Thus, the correct answer is option (4).
