In the Linnaean system of biological classification, an organism is identified as belonging to the phylum Chordata and the order Carnivora. Which of the following taxonomic ranks is situated directly between this phylum and order?

  1. A
    Family
  2. ClassCevap
  3. C
    Genus
  4. D
    Kingdom

Cevap

Class is the taxonomic rank situated directly between Phylum and Order.
In biological taxonomy, the standard hierarchy arranged from broadest to most specific is Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. Therefore, Class is the rank directly positioned between Phylum and Order.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Recall the descending hierarchical sequence of major Linnaean taxonomic categories.
The standard hierarchy from broadest to most specific is Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species.
Establishing the complete classification order provides the structural framework needed to find intermediate ranks.
2
Locate the positions of Phylum and Order within the established sequence.
Phylum is followed immediately by Class, which is then immediately followed by Order.
Identifying the adjacent positions in the sequence isolates the rank situated between them.
3
Determine the rank that connects the phylum Chordata and the order Carnivora.
The intermediate rank is Class (for example, Mammalia).
Directly resolves the question by identifying the specific category located between the given ranks.
