The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding which group of taxa will have more similarities in taxonomic hierarchy, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Taxonomic Hierarchy**: - Taxonomic hierarchy consists of several levels: Kingdom, Phylum (or Division), Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. - As we move down the hierarchy from Kingdom to Species, the number of similarities among organisms increases. 2. **Identify the Groups in the Options**: - The question presents different groups of taxa. We need to analyze each group to determine their taxonomic level and the similarities they share. 3. **Analyze Each Group**: - **Group 1**: Solanaceae, Convalaceae, and Poeceae (Families) - These are different families, which means they will have fewer similarities. - **Group 2**: Polyminerals, Poles, and Spindles (Orders) - These are different orders, which also means they will have fewer similarities. - **Group 3**: Solenum, Petunia, and Atropa (Genera) - These are different genera, which will have more similarities than families or orders but still less than species. - **Group 4**: Leopard, Tiger, and Lion (Species) - These are all species within the same genus (Panthera), which means they share a high level of similarities. 4. **Compare the Similarities**: - The species level (Group 4) has the most similarities because they belong to the same genus and share more specific characteristics compared to the other groups. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the group with the most similarities is **Leopard, Tiger, and Lion** because they are all species within the same genus. ### Final Answer: The group of taxa that will have more number of similarities compared to the others is **Leopard, Tiger, and Lion**. ---
