Study Notes

Biological Classification

The most distantly related taxa is Domain, which is the highest rank in biological classification.

Nomenclature

The branch of biology concerned with naming and classifying organisms is Taxonomy.

Population Biology

A localized group of organisms that belong to the same species is called a Population.

Biological Organization

The correct sequence of biological organization from least to most complex is: Organelle, Cell, Tissue, Organ, Organ System, Organism.
Species that belong to the same Genus must also belong to the same Family, and subsequently, the same Kingdom.
