Which choice lists the Linnaean taxons in the correct order from least specific to most specific?
Lorico [155]

Answer:

a) Kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species.

Kingdom is the broadest taxonomic category after domain as proposed by Linnaeus. The Linnaean hierarchy of taxon identifies species as the most specific taxon that include only those organisms that can interbreed to produce the fertile progeny.

Several species with some common features are placed in same genus while related genera are placed in same family. Likewise, related families are placed in same order and the related orders are placed in same phylum.

Hence, kingdom is the least specific or broadest taxon that includes all the related phyla while species is the most specific taxon that include only the organisms that can interbreed.
