Which is the highest or largest category in the classification of organisms?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Kingdom

Correct answer: B, Kingdom. In the hierarchy given in this question, kingdom is the broadest and highest category. It contains several phyla, each phylum contains classes, and classes contain orders. Therefore the order from broad to narrower among the options is Kingdom → Phylum → Class → Order. A, phylum, is below kingdom and includes organisms with a particular broad body plan or major feature. C, class, is below phylum. D, order, is below class and is more specific still. The question asks for the largest category, not the category with the largest individual organism, so the answer must be understood in terms of classification breadth. Memory cue: the hierarchy becomes narrower as we move from kingdom toward species.
