* Species: This category groups data based on different species, like humans, mice, or plants.
* Set/Group (InbredSet): This groups data according to a group of genetically similar organisms.
-* DatasetType: This classified data according to it's type. There are three main types: Genotypes (genetic makeup), Molecular Traits (molecular characteristics), and Phenotypes (observable traits).
+* DatasetType: This classifies data according to it's type. There are three main types: Genotypes, Molecular Traits, and Phenotypes.
The aforementioned classification scheme is inspired by GN's menu structure which forms the skeleton of the proposed classification. You can query metadata about this classification: "gn:ResourceClassificationScheme". This classification scheme has 3 levels:
* gnc:DatasetType
* gnc:Set
-* gn:Species.

-The beauty of this system is that most of the resources in GN can be accurately categorized using it. Instead of using specific properties like "gnt:belongsToSpecies" or "gnt:belongsToSet," we can utilize the xkos⁰ approach. For instance, to classify a resource, we can use the concept of xkos and apply the relationship "xkos:classifiedUnder." Here's an example of a resource that has been classified:
