Yes. "Family" is a more precise designation than "order." The levels, from most general to most specific, are Kingdom -- Phylum -- Class -- Order -- Family -- Genus -- species.

Species that are in the same are more closely related than species that are only in the same?
Species that are in the same family are more closely related than species that are only in the same order. The biological classification of family falls between order and genus.
Which group of organisms would have the most recent common ancestor the members of a clade corresponding to a genus or the members of a clade corresponding to an order?
The Genus is more closely related.
Which classification group fewer organisms in it family or an order?
It goes: Domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species; with domain with the most organisms, and species with the fewest. Therefore there are fewer organisms in a family.
What is the order in which organisms are classified?
Organisms are classified by Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species, and Sub-species.
Are there more organisms in the genus level that at the order level?
Yes. KPOCFGS Kingdom, Phylum, Order, Class, Family, Genus, Species.
Which level of classification contains organisms that are most closely related order or family?
Organisms within the same family are more closely related than those within the same order. Family is a higher classification level than order, so organisms within the same family share more recent common ancestry.
Are organisms in the same family less closely related than organisms in the same order?
Yes. "Family" is a more precise designation than "order." The levels, from most general to most specific, are Kingdom -- Phylum -- Class -- Order -- Family -- Genus -- species.
What generalization can you make about identifying how closely organisms are related?
if 2 or more organisms have more than one of the following the same, they are closley related: kingdom, phylum, class,order,family,genus,and species
Explain how classification groups show how closely related organisms are?
okay you got your kingdom phylum class order family genus and species
Are two organisms that share the same order more or less closely related that species that share the same class?
No. If they do not belong to the same class, they can't be in the same order or family. The classification goes: Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species
Species that are in the same are more closely related than species that are only in the same?
Species that are in the same family are more closely related than species that are only in the same order. The biological classification of family falls between order and genus.
Why are organisms classified into kingdom phylum class order family Genus and species?
To identify organisms and determine how groups are related.
What does family mean in classification?
In classification, the term "family" refers to a taxonomic rank used to group related organisms below the order and above the genus. It encompasses a group of similar genera sharing common characteristics. Members of the same family are more closely related to each other than those in different families.
What animal are more closely related those in the same order or the same genus?
Order is as follows: Life Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species To answer your question, animals in the same Genus are more closely related then those of the same Order.
Are organisms in the same family are less closely related than organisms in the same order.?
Yes. "Family" is a more precise designation than "order." The levels, from most general to most specific, are Kingdom -- Phylum -- Class -- Order -- Family -- Genus -- species.
Are porpoises more closely related to dolphins or whales?
Porpoises are more closely related to dolphins than whales. Both porpoises and dolphins are part of the family Delphinidae, while whales are a separate family within the order Cetacea.
Are the species that are in same family more closely related than the species in same order?
Yes, species within the same family are more closely related to each other than species within the same order. Family is a taxonomic rank that is more specific and shows a closer genetic relationship between species, while order is a broader taxonomic rank that includes multiple families.
