Which is the correct ascending order of taxonomic categories from bottom to top?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Species → Genus → Family

Correct answer: B, Species → Genus → Family. “Ascending” here means moving from the smaller, more specific category toward a larger, more inclusive category. A species is the basic unit of classification. Closely related species are grouped into a genus, and related genera are grouped into a family. Therefore the order is species, genus, then family. A reverses genus and family. C starts with family and moves downward, so it is the reverse direction. D incorrectly places species below genus in the wrong relationship. The wider hierarchy is Species → Genus → Family → Order → Class → Phylum → Kingdom. Memory cue: “Small species grow into a genus, then a family.”
