gtID#. For security reasons, in the spring of 2003, Georgia Tech began using a generated number as an identifier, replacing the social security number.

In biological classification, rank is the relative level of a group of organisms (a taxon) in a taxonomic hierarchy. Examples of taxonomic ranks are species, genus, family, class, kingdom, etc. A given rank subsumes under it less general categories, that is, more specific descriptions of life forms.xamples of taxonomic ranks are species, genus, family, class, kingdom, etc. A given rank subsumes under it less general categories, that is, more specific descriptions of life forms.
A species is a category within the classification system. Living things of the same type belong to the same species. For example, humans are one species and dogs are another species. Individuals of the same species can reproduce to make more individuals of the same species. Two individuals belonging to different species cannot normally reproduce together. If they do, their offspring is usually infertile and unable to reproduce.
