Q12 (UPPSC/2024) Science & Technology › Basic Science (Physics, Chemistry, Biology)

Which of the following is the correct order of plant species from higher to lower order ?

Explanation

In biological taxonomy, organisms are classified into a hierarchical structure. The standard taxonomic ranks, ordered from the highest (most inclusive) to the lowest (most specific), are:

  • Kingdom (e.g., Plantae/Plant Kingdom)
  • Phylum (often referred to as Division in botany)
  • Class
  • Order
  • Family
  • Genus
  • Species

Option D correctly follows this descending hierarchy: Plant Kingdom → Phylum → Class → Order. The other options are incorrect because they do not follow the established scientific sequence of classification.
