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.
