The correct option is A Species
- The taxonomic hierarchy was introduced by Linnaeus. It is used to classify organisms into different categories. It includes the sequence of categories in a decreasing or increasing order from kingdom to species.
- The domain is the highest rank in the hierarchy followed by the kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species.
- Species is the lowest rank in the hierarchy. It means species contain the least general characters as compared to other categories.
- Kingdom contains the most general characters of organisms under it.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
