What is the correct sequence from bottom to top for the seven obligatory taxonomic categories?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Species–Genus–Family–Order–Class–Phylum–Kingdom

Answer: A. Taxonomic categories are arranged from the most specific level to progressively broader groups. A species contains organisms with very similar characteristics; related species are placed in one genus. Related genera form a family, related families form an order, related orders form a class, related classes form a phylum, and related phyla form a kingdom. Therefore the bottom-to-top sequence is Species, Genus, Family, Order, Class, Phylum, Kingdom. A gives every step in the correct order. B gives the same major categories in the reverse direction, from broadest to most specific, so it is not bottom to top. C incorrectly places Family before Genus. D incorrectly places Order before Family. Memory cue: “Small Groups Form Orderly Classes, Phyla, Kingdoms” can help recall Species–Genus–Family–Order–Class–Phylum–Kingdom. Do not confuse the direction: bottom means most specific, while top means broadest.
