Vedclass · Answer

(B) Taxonomic categories are arranged in a hierarchy where the number of common characteristics decreases as we move from species to kingdom.$Tomato$ ($Solanum$ $lycopersicum$) and $potato$ ($Solanum$ $tuberosum$) are distinct species but belong to the same genus $Solanum$ and the same family $Solanaceae$.Since $family$ is a lower taxonomic category than $order$ or $division$,the organisms sharing the same family exhibit a higher degree of common characteristics compared to those sharing only an order or division.Therefore,the common characteristics between $tomato$ and $potato$ are maximum at the level of their $family$.

Column-$I$ (Common name)	Column-$II$ (Taxonomic category-Order)
$A$. Wheat	$I$. Primata
$B$. Mango	$II$. Diptera
$C$. Housefly	$III$. Sapindales
$D$. Man	$IV$. Poales

The common characteristics between $tomato$ and $potato$ will be maximum at the level of their.
