2. Lack of predictability in traits .

3. Confusion in scientific communication .

4. Inaccurate phylogenetic relationships .

5. Limited understanding of evolutionary biology .

6. Increased complexity in research .

If common fundamental features were not included in animal classification, then there would be several problems:

1. Classification will be random
Classification will be chaotic
Classification will be illogical
2. Lack of evolutional relation
Identification of evolutionary relationships among different species will become a tough job
Origin and diversification of life forms cannot be traced properly.
3. Misleading Indications for Evolutionary History: Misclassified species may give misleading indications of the evolutionary history of animals.
4. **Scientific Research Blocked:** Scientific research in fields like genetics, ecology, and conservation biology relies on a proper system of classification. A wrong one will be a block to scientific research.
5. Practical Conservation Differences Correct conservation requires correct identification and classification of species. Otherwise, a wrong classification system might give incorrect working principles for conservation.

In an attempt to create a scientifically valid and rational system of classification, scientists would take into account common fundamental features. It is helpful in understanding the diversity of life on Earth.
