About 2000 years ago, Aristotle classified living organisms based on their movement-organisms that could move were classified as animals and those that could not were classified as plants. Animals were then divided into blood and bloodless (not having red blood) animals. He also classified organisms as those that lived on land, water, or in air. Furthermore, based on their ability to fly, swim, crawl, or walk, animals were classified as birds, fish, reptiles, and so on. Which of the following best explains the limitations of Aristotle's classification system?

    You don't provide the options, but the limits are that there are plants that move, depending on your definition of movement. Also, some reptiles have differing movements (snake vs lizard), as do mammals (humans vs koalas vs cats), and some birds can't fly (penguins and ostriches). These classifications don't give enough information. I'm sure these aren't the only ones
