As you go down the levels of classification (from kingdom to species), the level of classification becomes more specific and increases. This means that organisms within the same species are more closely related to each other than organisms within the same kingdom.

Why is the seven levels of classification triangle upside down?
The seven levels of classification are organized in a triangle because it shows the relationship between each level, with broad categories at the top and specific groups at the bottom. The triangle is upside down to reflect the idea that as you move down the levels, you are moving from general to specific classifications.
Why does the amount of organisms decrease as you move from the first level of classification to the last level?
Each of the levels of classification is a subunit, which necessarily means that is has only a percentage of the whole. For example, Animalia (Animals) is a Kingdom and Chordata (Vertebrates) is a Phylum, the next level down. Now, all vertebrates are animals, but there are numerous animals that are invertebrates, such as worms, mollusks, jellyfishes, insects, spiders, etc. If you repeat this process of boxes within boxes, you will eventually get more and more specific. By the time you get to Genus and Species, you are only dealing with small levels of difference compared to Kingdoms and Phyla.
What is more specific phylum or genus?
Genus is more specific than phylum. Phylum is a high-level taxonomic rank that groups organisms based on shared body plans, while genus is a rank that groups similar species together based on shared characteristics.
What is the purpose of biological classification to idenify plants?
One of the first steps in solving a large problem is to break it down into smaller parts, sort things out. In doing this in biological classification a whole lot of discoveries were made, so it became a popular thing to do.
What are the 7 levels of classification from kingdom to species?
In the simplest form of taxonomic hierarchy, the taxa are ordered as follows:KingdomPhylumClassOrderFamilyGenusSpeciesHowever, this is not the full version. The complete list of taxa is:DomainKingdomSuperphylum/SuperdivisionPhylum/DivisionSubphylum/SubdivisionInfraphylum/InfradivisionSuperclassClassSubclassInfraclassSuperorderOrderSuborderInfraorderSuperfamilyFamilySubfamilyInfrafamilySupertribeTribeSubtribeInfratribeGenusSpeciesSubspecies/VarietyBreed/Subvariety*Please note that not all advanced taxa are used for every organism.

If a region's forest are cut down will the amount of rainfall increase or decrease?
decrease because the trees are an important part of the water cycle
Regulation of the release of T3 and T4 from the thyroid gland is controlled by negative feedback?
When the level of the thyroxine increase, the level of the thyroid stimulating hormone decrease. So in turn the level of the thyroid hormone decreases. When the level of the thyroxine decrease, the level of the thyroid stimulating hormone increase. This in turn increase the level of the thyroxine. This explanation does not explain to how the level of the hormone is regulated at that particular level. But then this explanation satisfy most of the people.
Does nonmetal activity tend to decrease or increase as one goes down group 17?
It's decrease because florine has the most activity.
