Which statement about taxonomic classification is true?A. Genus is more specific than speciesB. Species is more broad than kingdomC. Order is more broad than kingdomD. Family is more specific than phylum



Answer :

There are seven main taxonomic ranks, and they are classified in the following order:

Kingdom > Phylum > Class > Order > Family > Genus > Species

Therefore, species is more specific than genus, so A is incorrect.

Kingdom is more broad than species, so B is incorrect as well.

Kingdom is more broad than order, so C is wrong too.

Family is more specific than phylum, so D is the correct answer.
