Is genus the same as order for whales?
No, genus and order are different taxonomic ranks. Genus refers to a grouping of closely related species, while order is a higher taxonomic rank that includes multiple families of organisms. In the case of whales, the order is Cetacea, which includes multiple genera like Orcinus (killer whale) and Balaenoptera (blue whale).
What is Classification group containing related species?
A taxonomic category that includes similar or related species within a broader classification hierarchy is called a genus. A genus typically contains multiple species that share common characteristics and traits. Examples include the genus Canis, which includes species like wolves, dogs, and jackals.
Can different animals have the same genus but be in different classes?
No, animals in the same genus belong to the same class. The genus is a taxonomic rank above the species level but below the family level. Animals in the same genus share more similarities than animals in different genera.
Which has more in common a Kingdom and species b Genus and family c Order and phylum d Class and order?
b) Genus and family. Genus and family are more closely related taxonomic ranks compared to the other options. Genera within the same family share more similarities in terms of evolutionary history and characteristics than genera in different families.
Is genus the classification group that has fewer members than all other groups except a species?
Yes, genus is a taxonomic rank that includes fewer members than the family or order but more than the species within the biological classification system. It groups species that are closely related in terms of evolutionary history and shared characteristics.
Which animals are more closely related those in the same order or the same genus?
Animals within the same genus are more distantly related.
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.
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 group of organisms within a genus would have the most recent common ancestor compared to a group within an order. This is because a genus represents a subset of species that are more closely related and share a more recent common ancestor than the broader group represented by an order.
Why is the domestic dog in the canines order?
B/c it's closely related to the other animals in that order.
Explain how classification groups show how closely related organisms are?
okay you got your kingdom phylum class order family genus and 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
What is the difference of kingdom and genus?
A kingdom is a broad classification category in taxonomy that groups organisms based on shared characteristics, while a genus is a more specific classification level that groups closely related species. In the taxonomic hierarchy, kingdom is more general and higher up than genus.
Are organisms in the same family less or more 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.
Can different animals have the same genus but be in different classes?
No, animals in the same genus belong to the same class. The genus is a taxonomic rank above the species level but below the family level. Animals in the same genus share more similarities than animals in different genera.
