• In biological classification, the order from most inclusive to least inclusive is domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species.
• Option A has domain at the end which is incorrect. Option B has species before genus which is wrong. Option C has incorrect order of domain and kingdom and also wrong order of other taxa. Option D follows the correct order.
