Answer:

B. A domain is a broader level of organization than a kingdom

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A is incorrect because there are three domains (Eukarya, Archaea, Bacteria) and six kingdoms. Option D is incorrect because kingdoms do not only include animals. Option C is incorrect because domains came after kingdoms. Ultimately, option B is correct because it is a broader level of organization since it is not very specific and encompasses all living organisms.
