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


Are two organisms that share the same order more or less closely relates than species that share the same class?

Can two species be members of same genus not of same family?

The classification of organisms from general to specific goes: Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species. Therefor, two species the same Genus MUST be members of the same Family. However, a Family may consist of several different Genus, so species in the same Family are not necessarily members of the same Genus.

Organisms that are similar in structure and form and successfully interbreed belong to the same family?

They will belong to either the same family or species.


Are foxes and wolves the same species?

No, but they both belong to the canid family.


If two organisms belong to the same order must they belong to the same family?

No; if they belong to the same genus then they have to belong to the same family.


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.


If two organisms belong to the same family what other taxnomic groups do the organisms have in common?

Organisms belonging to the same family share the same order, class, phylum, and kingdom. For example, if two organisms are in the same family Felidae (cats), then they would also belong to the order Carnivora, class Mammalia, phylum Chordata, and kingdom Animalia.
