Which of the following less general in characters as compared to genus : -
1 Species
2 Division
3 Class
4 Family
Explanation:
There are seven obligate categories-kingdom, division, class, order, family, genus and species. - When we go higher from species to kingdom, the number of common characteristics goes on decreasing. - Species are the smallest group among all the seven levels of taxonomy with almost similar characters. Example: Cat : Felis catus etc. 'Species' is less general in characters as compared to genus.
