Question
place each of the eight divisions of classification in order from the broadest to the most specific type. (broadest at the top and most specific at the bottom.) class domain family genus kingdom order phylum species
In biological classification, the hierarchical order from broadest to most specific is based on the Linnaean system. Domain is the highest (broadest) level as it groups organisms based on fundamental characteristics like cell type (e.g., Bacteria, Archaea, Eukarya). Kingdom is next (e.g., Animalia, Plantae). Phylum further divides kingdoms (e.g., Chordata in Animalia). Class comes after phylum (e.g., Mammalia in Chordata). Order follows class (e.g., Primates in Mammalia). Family is more specific (e.g., Hominidae in Primates). Genus is even more specific (e.g., Homo in Hominidae). Species is the most specific (e.g., Homo sapiens).
