Question

the following list of names is the complete classification of a species of pine tree and is provided in order from least inclusive (top) to most inclusive (bottom). add the labels to describe the classification hierarchy for each name.
table with columns: hierarchy name (empty rows) and classification names (strobus, pinus, pinaceae, pinales, pinopsida, pinophyta, plant); labels (boxes): order, phylum, species, class, kingdom, family, genus

Explanation:

Response

To solve this, we recall the biological classification hierarchy from least inclusive (species) to most inclusive (kingdom, but here "Plant" is the kingdom - level for plants). The hierarchy order (from least to most inclusive) is: Species, Genus, Family, Order, Class, Phylum, Kingdom.

Step 1: Identify "strobus"

"strobus" is the specific epithet, so it belongs to Species.

Step 2: Identify "Pinus"

"Pinus" is the genus name, so it belongs to Genus.

Step 3: Identify "Pinaceae"

"Pinaceae" is the family name (ends in -aceae), so it belongs to Family.

Step 4: Identify "Pinales"

"Pinales" is an order name (ends in -ales), so it belongs to Order.

Step 5: Identify "Pinopsida"

"Pinopsida" is a class name (ends in -opsida), so it belongs to Class.

Step 6: Identify "Pinophyta"

"Pinophyta" is a phylum name (for plants, sometimes called division, but here labeled Phylum), so it belongs to Phylum.

Step 7: Identify "Plant"

"Plant" represents the kingdom (Plantae), so it belongs to Kingdom.

Step 3: Identify "Pinaceae"

"Pinaceae" is the family name (ends in -aceae), so it belongs to Family.

Step 4: Identify "Pinales"

"Pinales" is an order name (ends in -ales), so it belongs to Order.

Step 5: Identify "Pinopsida"

"Pinopsida" is a class name (ends in -opsida), so it belongs to Class.

Step 6: Identify "Pinophyta"

"Pinophyta" is a phylum name (for plants, sometimes called division, but here labeled Phylum), so it belongs to Phylum.

Step 7: Identify "Plant"

"Plant" represents the kingdom (Plantae), so it belongs to Kingdom.
