Question

1. The flow chart below indicates the hierarchical levels of the Linnaean classification system. In the flow chart, the classification levels become more specific from left to right. An individual Kingdom, for example, is a more general rank, and contains more organisms, than an individual Phylum contained within that Kingdom. Domain is another classification rank that can be used to classify organisms. Where would Domain best fit in the hierarchical chart shown above? a.)between Genus and Species b.)between Kingdom and Phylum c.)after Species d.)before Kingdom

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer would be d.) before Kingdom

The domain is the taxonomic rank present at the top in a classification hierarchy.

The hierarchy from bottom to top can be written as species → genus → family → order → class → phylum → kingdom → domain

There are mainly three domains in taxonomy hierarchy archaea, bacteria, and eukarya.

Archaea and bacteria contain prokaryotic organisms or single-celled organisms which lack a nucleus.

In contrast, eukarya contain organisms which have a well-developed nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.

Answer 2

Domain would go before Kingdom
