The Linnaean system of classification used a nested hierarchy to sort organisms into groups based on similarities and difference
s in their characteristics. kingdom → phylum → class → order → _______ → genus → species What category is missing from the above system? A. multicellular B. prokaryote C. domain D. family
Option D - The Linnaean system of classification used a nested hierarchy to sort organisms into groups based on similarities and differences in their characteristics. kingdom → phylum → class → order → family → genus → species.
<u>Explanation</u>
The family is missing from the Linnaean system of classification that is used for nested hierarchy. Carolus Linnaean worked for the taxonomy. It is the system of classifying and naming organisms. This system includes eight taxa: domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. Linnaeus presented us with a uniform way to identify species called binomial nomenclature.
The following are the two considerations demonstrating that there would be less biodiversity than the tropical areas in the Mediterranean climate as well as polar areas.
The first reason is all tropical areas experience drastic temperature variation.
The second reason is early in the earth's history, the northern latitudes are inhabited.
