Several characteristics for the order Proboscidea are that they have a trunk used as an extra limb.
Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Mammalia Order: Proboscidea Family: Elephantidae Genus: Elephas or Loxodonta Species: Various species within the genus Elephas or Loxodonta, such as Elephas maximus (Asian elephant) and Loxodonta africana (African elephant)
The subphylum of a mammoth is Vertebrata, which includes animals with a backbone or spinal column. Mammoths are a type of proboscidean, belonging to the order Proboscidea within the subphylum Vertebrata.
Order in classification helps to organize and group similar organisms based on shared characteristics, making it easier to study and understand their relationships. It provides a systematic way to identify and categorize organisms, helping scientists communicate and share information effectively. Additionally, order in classification helps in predicting the characteristics and behaviors of organisms based on their classification.

In taxonomy, classes with similar characteristics are under the classification level of "phylum." The classification levels (from broad to specific) are domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species. Ergo, a phylum contains classes with similar characteristics.

Proboscidea is the biological order that includes elephants and their extinct relatives like mammoths and mastodons. The name comes from the elongated, muscular structure known as a proboscis, which is used for grasping objects, feeding, and communication.
Mammals have three special characteristics that separate them from other groups of animals. The females produce milk by mammary glands, they have hair, and they have 3 specific middle ear bones. All of these characteristics are true of elephants, thus they are mammals (in the Order Proboscidea).

Woolly mammoths belong to the genus Mammuthus, the same genus as other mammoths. That genus is part of the family Elephantidae, and that is part of the order Proboscidea. Proboscidea is part of the class Mammalia.
Insectivora
No, elephants are proboscidea. This order is mostly extinct since the last ice age, but also contained mammoths.
