Here's a breakdown of how this fits into the broader classification system:
* Species: The most specific level of classification, grouping organisms that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring.
* Genus: A group of closely related species that share a common ancestor.
* Family: A group of related genera.
* Order: A group of related families.
* Class: A group of related orders.
* Phylum: A group of related classes.
* Kingdom: A group of related phyla.
* Domain: The broadest level of classification, grouping organisms based on fundamental characteristics.
So, for example, the genus *Panthera* includes species like the lion (*Panthera leo*), the tiger (*Panthera tigris*), the leopard (*Panthera pardus*), and the jaguar (*Panthera onca*).
