Detailed explanation-1: -Moving down through each level of classification, the number of species in the group decreases (Table 1.10). Two species within the same genus likely share a recent common ancestor in their evolutionary history.
Detailed explanation-2: -In the Linnaean system of hierarchy, as we go from species to kingdom, the number of common characters decreases, while in the descending order, the number of common characteristics increases.
Detailed explanation-3: -As you move down the chart, fewer organisms are listed in each row. An organism is first placed in a kingdom. Then it is put into each more specific group. The more levels two organisms share, the more they have in common.
Detailed explanation-4: -The sequential order is: Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species.
