For an example of how this works, consider the taxonomy of the domestic dog. Dogs are classified as members of the Class Mammalia, Order Carnivore, Family Canidae, Genus Canis and Species familiaris.

That post also suggests she has no understanding of what homeopathic medicine is about and why it is considered quackery.
hy Are Homeopathic Medicines Prepared in Microdoses?

Hahnemann found that often there would be a temporary worsening of the very symptoms he was attempting to cure, so he experimented by diluting the medicine, making it smaller. At a certain point it ceased to act.

Then Hahnemann did something never before tried in the history of medicine. He forcibly shook the medicine every time he diluted it. Holding the vial of diluted medicine in his fist he struck that hand against a heavy book ten or twenty times. This he called succussion. Every dilution was succussed. After diluting and succussing a medicine he noticed that instead of having a weaker effect, it had a stronger one! From then on Hahnemann prepared all medicines by dilution and succussion. They are still prepared in this manner today.
