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.
. Species are organisms that can breed to produce fertile offspring. Species are named by using a system called âbinomial nomenclature.â Names in binomial nomenclature are âscientific names,â consisting of genus and species names written in Latin.For example, humansâ scientific name is Homo sapiens.The genus name is always initial cap, the species is always lower-case, and the entire name is written in italics to indicate it is in a foreign languageâin this case, Latin. This is the smallest classifying group.or example, humansâ scientific name is Homo sapiens.
