Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
D

In the taxonomic hierarchy, Class is considered one of the obligate or broad categories, not a subcategory. While it is true that a class groups together related orders (for example, the class Mammalia includes orders like Primata and Carnivora), the term "sub category" is used specifically for intermediate ranks like sub-species, sub-genus, or sub-family that provide more detailed classification within the main hierarchy.
