The correct option is A Phylum
Two animals belong to the same kingdom but different classes. They may belong to the same phylum.
The current taxonomic system now has eight levels in its hierarchy, from lowest to highest, they are species, genus, family, order, class, phylum, kingdom, domain.
Thus, species are grouped within genera, genera are grouped within families, families are grouped within orders, and so on.
Hence, the correct answer is option A.
