Question

What is the taxonomic classification of a frog?

Answer 1

Hint: Taxonomy (that apparently means "arrangement law") is the study of characterizing organisms in order to create categorization systems that group every organism into greater encompassing sections. A hierarchical system is one that organizes things from considerably larger to smaller, more precise groups.

Complete answer:
Scientists organize organisms into three big groupings termed domains after the fundamental origin of all life: Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. Under every domain, there is a subsection known as a kingdom. The following groups of increasing specialization after kingdoms are phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. Within scientific categorization, groups are organized in order of ascending intricacy. The seven levels of classification for a frog are as follows:
Domain: Eukarya
Kingdom: Animalia (One of the most distinguishing features of this kingdom is the lack of a cell wall)
Phylum: Chordata (The occurrence of a notochord characterizes chordates)
Subphylum: Vertebrata (Presence of vertebral column)
Class: Amphibia (This class is characterized by the life-cycle of an organism to live on both land and water)
Order: Anura (One of the characteristic features of this order is the absence of tails in adults)
Family: Ranidae ( The organisms belonging to this family typically lay their eggs on water and develop into tadpoles)
Genus: Rana
Species: pipiens (Northern leopard frog)

Note:
Frogs occupy a domain (Eukarya) with organisms with the greatest genetic variation, including plants and butterflies. The animals are more likely to be related at each sublevel, therefore they appear more comparable. Scientists used to classify animals based on their morphological traits, but as DNA technology advanced, more accurate phylogenetic analysis based on genetic resemblance was discovered.
