Combining different families with similar characteristics forms which taxonomic category?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Order

Correct answer: B, Order. Taxonomic categories are arranged from broader groups to narrower groups. In the commonly taught hierarchy, the sequence is Kingdom, Phylum or Division, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. A number of related genera form a family, and related families are grouped into an order. Therefore, when different families have similar important characteristics, they are placed in the same order. Option A, genus, is below family and contains related species, so it is too narrow. Option C, class, is above order and includes several related orders, so it is too broad for this question. Option D, phylum, is still broader and includes several classes. Memory cue: “Family follows Order” when reading downward: Order → Family → Genus → Species.
