, Table 1.1 provides the authoritative taxonomic classification for several common organisms . The housefly (Musca domestica) is correctly matched to its taxonomic hierarchy in the following sequence: Muscidae (Family), Diptera (Order), Insecta (Class), and Arthropoda (Phylum) . The other options are incorrect because they mismatch the rank of the categories; for instance, in humans, Hominidae is the family and Primata is the order, so a match listing Primata before Hominidae is incorrect . Similarly, mango belongs to the family Anacardiaceae and order Sapindales, while wheat belongs to the family Poaceae and order Poales . Toppers emphasize that this table is a frequent source of examination questions .
