Answer:

D: Organisms in the same family.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species are the taxonomic ranks.
  • As we move from kingdom to species the number of organisms belonging to the taxon decreases whereas the similarity between the organism belonging to that taxon increases.
  • Therefore, from the given option, it is family that will have the organism sharing the most similarities and thus, would look alike.
