Answer:

The farther I moved down the taxonomy levels it becomes harder because at the top the classifications in the domain or kingdom are very broad. The farther you move down the more specific and detailed the classifications get. Also, there are many different groupings from the family classification to the subspecies classification which makes it harder for one to classify because of the about of precision you need to classify and put an organism into which ever group it goes into.
