liigikategooriasse
Liigikategooriasse refers to the taxonomic classification of a species within the biological hierarchy. This system, developed by Carl Linnaeus, arranges organisms into a nested series of ranks, starting from broad categories and becoming progressively more specific. The primary ranks include domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. Each level represents a group of organisms sharing a common ancestry and distinct characteristics.
For instance, humans belong to the species Homo sapiens. This species is part of the genus Homo,
The process of assigning a species to its correct category is known as taxonomic classification or systematics.
