Sharks belong to the taxonomic class Chondrichthyes, which includes cartilaginous fish. Within this class, they are further classified under the subclass Elasmobranchii, which encompasses both sharks and rays. Sharks are divided into various orders and families, with over 500 species identified, including well-known examples like the great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) and the tiger shark (Galeocerdo cuvier).
the lowest rank of taxa is species
Kingdom is the first level in the modern organization of taxa.
Polyphyletic and paraphyletic taxa are problematic when the goal is to construct phylogenies that accurately reflect evolutionary history. These taxa do not accurately represent the evolutionary relationships between species and can lead to incorrect interpretations. Monophyletic taxa, on the other hand, are ideal for constructing phylogenies as they include all descendants of a common ancestor.
