Answer:

After kingdoms the <u>Phylum</u> category comes, following Phylum is <u>Class</u>, various classes that are related will form a Phylum. The next category is <u>Order</u>, order is divided into <u>Family,</u> families are broken into <u>Genus</u>, where species are closely related between each other and finally the last category is <u>Especies identifier,</u> in this group there are unique characteristics that will identify a specie. With this classification we can see that we go from global groups  to more specifics ones as the classification avances.
