Solution and Explanation
The correct hierarchical arrangement of taxonomic categories in ascending order is
Species → Genus → Family → Order → Class → Phylum → Kingdom
Therefore, both (a) and (c) represent correct sequences of taxonomic categories.
In sequence (b), species should be followed by genus.
Therefore, it does not represent the correct sequence.
