Science 8 Quiz on Taxonomy and Energy Levels .pptx

The taxonomic hierarchy is a system for classifying living organisms from the most general to the most specific categories, or taxa, using a hierarchical ranking. The standard eight ranks, from broadest to most specific, are Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. This classification, based on the Linnean system, helps scientists understand relationships between organisms and communicate effectively about them.
