characteristic for classifying
organisms?

(b) the kind of cells they are
made of. Why?
The characteristic of the kind of cells they are made of - is a more basic characteric of classification as habitat or the place where the organisms can live will involve very different groups staying in a similar habitat. Thus, habitat cannot be basic characteristic for the classification of organism into groups. However, the type of cell will give a better lassification.
