Which of the following correctly lists these ranks from most to least inclusive? Group of answer choices a) phylum; class; genus; family; species b) class; order; family; genus; species c) order; class; family; genus; species d) kingdom; order; class; genus; species e) kingdom; domain; family; genus; species

The correct answer is: b) class; order; family; genus; species  

Explanation:

The principal taxonomic levels are as follow: kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species

ecological efficiency: % of usable energy transferred as

biomass from one trophic level to the next typical is 10% efficient (90% of

energy is lost),is diagramed as the pyramid of energy flow. then osprey eagle

are tertiary consumer and the shrimp are primary consumer, so to balance

mass of shrimp (1/0.1) / 0.1 = 100 kg 

c. is the correct answer
