Detailed explanation-1: -Family is the rank in between order and genus; it is more specific than an order, but less specific than a genus.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The statement about the taxonomic classification system that is correct is “Species is the most specific category of classification.” The first level of classification is the most broad, and includes three domains: Archaebacteria, Bacteria and Eukarya.
Detailed explanation-3: -For example, a genus contains one or more species; a family contains one or more genera; an order contains one or more families; and so on. The domain is the highest level of organization and is the largest group.
Detailed explanation-4: -The current taxonomic system now has eight levels in its hierarchy, from lowest to highest, they are: species, genus, family, order, class, phylum, kingdom, domain. Thus species are grouped within genera, genera are grouped within families, families are grouped within orders, and so on (Figure 1).
