BIOLOGY: Taxonomic Rank

Trying to remember the order of taxonomic classification from the broadest to narrowest rank? A little Nintendo might help. Just remember the following sentence, as the first letter in each word stands for an order in the taxonomic rank:


Donkey Kong's Princess Called Out For Gorilla Smashing

Domain - Kingdom - Phylum - Class - Order - Family - Genus - Species
