In a taxonomic hierarchy, family is interpolated between

The taxonomic hierarchy is represented as follows:

• Kingdom: It is the highest and first-most category. It is a collection of phyla or divisions that share very few fundamental traits.
• Phylum: A category higher than class, or Division for plants and animals. For animals, the term "phylum" is used, whereas, for plants, the term "division" is used.
• Class: A class is a collection of one or more connected orders.
• Order: A group of families is defined as one in which linked families are retained in the same order.
• Family: Following genus, family is the next category. It consists of distinct groups of related genera that are less similar to one another than genus and species.
• Genus: A genus is a collection of closely related species that share a great deal in common with one another.
• Species: According to John Ray, this is the fundamental unit of taxonomy. It is described as a collection of healthy, possibly mating populations that have reproductive isolation and segregation from other such populations.

Hence, the correct option is B.
