Species

Vedclass · Answer

(A) In the taxonomic hierarchy,the categories are arranged from the highest (most general) to the lowest (most specific) level: Kingdom > Phylum/Division > Class > Order > Family > Genus > Species.As we move from higher to lower categories,the number of shared characters increases,meaning the group becomes 'less general' and 'more specific'.Since 'Species' is the lowest taxonomic category,it possesses the most specific characters and is the least general compared to all other categories,including 'Genus'.

Which of the following is less general in characters as compared to genus?
