kolbaska11 [484]

Answer;

3. the two organisms belong to the same kingdom

Explanation;

-The classification of living things includes 7 levels, from the highest to lowest rank: kingdom, phylum, classes, order, families, genus, and species . The most basic classification of living things is kingdoms.

-The broadest classifications are by domain and kingdom; the most specific classification is by genus and species.

Therefore; if two organisms are in the same phylum, then it means they both belong to the same kingdom, because kingdom is the rank of classification higher than phylum.
