Answer:

Correct question is:

Frogs and toads belong to the order Anura. The smallest organism in this order is about 7 millimeters long, while the largest member is about 30

centimeters long. Which of these lists best describes this order?

a. Order Anura: 338 families, 28 genera, 4360 species

b. Order Anura: 28 families, 338 genera, 4360 species

c. Order Anura: 338 families, 4360 genera, 28 species

d. Order Anura: 28 families, 4360 genera, 338 species

Answer:

b. Order Anura: 28 families, 338 genera, 4360 species

The families are biggest part followed by genera and then each genera has multiple species, this is described by nomenclature of biological species. Therefore option B is correct as the numbers are also increasing because families will be fewer than genera and genera will be fewer than species.
