In my text book it says that the Genus belongs to a Species and that is also what my teacher told me..? Is this right because I have a big test on this..? So anyone that can help please tell me.
A group of closely related species would share the same genus.
Same genus or closely related species.
Similar species are grouped in a taxonomic category called a genus. A genus is a group of closely related species that share common characteristics and are more closely related to each other than to species in other genera.
Entamoeba coli is most closely related to Entamoeba histolytica because they both belong to the same genus, Entamoeba. Escherichia coli is a different genus and is more distantly related to the Entamoeba species.
Yes, Ficus benjamina and Ficus lyrata belong to the same genus Ficus, but they are different species within the genus. They are not closely related in terms of their specific characteristics and growth habits.
Animals within the same genus are more distantly related.
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.

A genus is a low-level taxonomical rank that groups together closely-related species. These closely-related species have a common ancestor.
A group of closely related species would share the same genus.
Agenus is a group of species composed ofmembers more closely related to each otherthan to species from any other genus.
family
No. They are a different genus, not even closely related.
The classification with the most similar species is the genus, as it groups species that are closely related and share common characteristics..species within the same genus are more closely related to each other than species in different genera.
You can tell how closely related organisms are by determining the lowest classification that they share. For example, organisms that share the same genus will be more closely related than organisms that share the same family.
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.
In the classification of organisms, family is a higher taxonomic rank than genus, and genus is a higher rank than species. Organisms that belong to the same genus are more closely related than those in the same family, and organisms in the same species are the most closely related.
