Write a list of the following taxonomic categories in order from most inclusive to least inclusive: genus, order, domain, family, phylum, species, kingdom, class.
Place these levels of classification in order from least inclusive to most inclusive: class, domain, family, genus, kingdom, order, phylum, species.
Remembering the order of the taxonomic system from Domain to species is something you will need to know. One method to memorize a list is to use a Mnenomic device. The two best devices for taxonomy are either an Acronym or an Acrostic. Please see this link OR ask instructor if you need help on this! Examples of Mnemonic devices
What is your Mnemonic device for the following list (in this order)?
Domain
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species
