Explain the scope and significance of Numerical Taxonomy.

Explanation

1) Numerical Taxonomy uses mathematical methods to evaluate observable differences and similarities between taxonomic groups.
2) Numerical taxonomy which is now easily carried out using the computers is based on all observable characters.
3) In this process no. and codes are assigned to all the characters . and the data are then processed.
4) Each character is given equal importance and at the same time hundreds of characters can be considered.
