What is incorrect for taxonomic hierarchy?
| 1. | There are 7 obligate and more than 21 intermediate categories |
| 2. | Higher the category, fewer the number of organism |
| 3. | Lower the category, more the number of common features |
| 4. | Greatest similarity in structure is found in between members of a species |
Which statements is incorrect with respect to genus?
| 1. | Each genus may have one or more than one specific epithets |
| 2. | It comprises a group of related species |
| 3. | It has more characters in common in comparison to species of other genera |
| 4. | Potato and brinjal belong to different genus |
Study of diversity of organisms and evolutionary relationship amongst them on the basis of all possible characters is called as
| 1. | Taxonomy | 2. | Systematics |
| 3. | Alpha-taxonomy | 4. | Phylogeny |
First step of taxonomy is
| 1. | Classification |
| 2. | Nomenclature |
| 3. | Identification |
| 4. | Characterisation |
Animals, dogs and mammals represent
| 1. | Taxa at different levels |
| 2. | Taxonomic hierarchy |
| 3. | Taxa at equivalent level |
| 4. | Categories at equivalent level |
