File:Hierarchy - Definition And Classification

Description
Hierarchy refers to the taxonomic classification of living organisms in successive levels of complexity. The highest rank in such a classification “Kingdom” while “species” is the lowest. Hierarchy can be classified into two types namely obligate hierarchy and intermediary hierarchy.

A taxonomical study has led to the formation of seven categories in which every living organism in the world can be categorized: 1. Species 2. Genus 3. Family 4. Order 5. Class 6. Phylum 7. Kingdom
