The largets group is superkingdom Prokarya, the one concerned with bacterias, followed by kingdom fungi.


What criteria are used to place organisms into the different taxa?

Organisms are placed into different taxa based on their shared characteristics, such as physical appearance, genetic makeup, and evolutionary history. Taxonomists consider traits like body structure, behavior, and biochemical processes to determine the relationships between different species and assign them to the appropriate taxonomic groups.


Is an order a taxon?

No. A taxon is one or more groups of organisms. An order is one of the many specific ranks available to classify taxa under. While it is true that an order consists of a group of organisms, it doesn't refer to the organism itself, it's just a hierarchical naming system; thus, isn't a taxon.
