The correct answer is d. phylum.

Biological classification is the process by which different organisms are classified and grouped on the basis of different properties such as complexity of cells, mode nutrition, mode of reproduction etc.

There are mainly 7 taxa in which scientist group different organisms. In hierarchical order these taxa are:

Kingdom

Class

Order

Family

Genus

Species

Species is the smallest or the basic unit of this classification. It has the maximum similarity among its members.
