What are the levels of classification starting with domain?
- a domain is the highest level of organization - within a domain, there are kingdoms - withing kingdoms, there are phyla (singular phylum) - within phyla are classes - within classes are orders - within orders are families - each family contains one or more genera - each genus contains one or more species
What is the name of the classification level in which classes with similar characteristics are grouped?
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.
