The dimensions as we know them currently break down as follows:
1: An infinitely small point
2: A line- a point with only width
3: A plane- a line which know has height and width
4: A solid- a line with breadth, depth and width
5: Movement/change- generally referred to as time.
Since the 1st dimension is effectively non-existent, we start counting at the line which is why a solid, like a cube, is considered 3 dimensional and not 4 dimensional.
The dimension of time is really only half a dimension, as we are only able to move in one direction through it (this is referred to as time asymmetry) rather than having a full range of motion.
String theory currently postulates as many as 11 dimensions though currently we do not have any descriptions of them. Though they are generally believed to be extremely small (subatomic) and curled up very tightly.

Are there additional dimensions?
In mathematics, there is no limit to the number of dimensions that you can have. ================================ Additional dimensions is a tricky topic to discuss. It is as twisted as quantum mechanics. But no we cannot guarantee the existence of extra dimensions.

What are the two classifications of dimensions?
The two classifications of dimensions are Size Dimensions, and Location Dimensions. Size Dimensions are placed in direct relationship to a feature to identify the specific size. Location Dimensions are used to identify the relationship of a feature to another feature in an object.
How do you distinguish between derived dimensions and regular dimensions on the screen?
What you are looking for are driven dimensions. Derived dimensions must be a typo. Driven dimensions are enclosed in parentheses to distinguish them from regular dimensions in inventor. These dimensions do not contrain a sketch they simply reflect dimensioned geometry which is most likely under some geometric constraint.
