Explanation:

A mnemonic that might be good to remember would be:

Determined King Philip Came Over From Great Spain

Following the first letters, it will help you remember the order of taxa from largest to smallest.

Domain is the largest among the taxonomic ranks which categorizes the organisms based on cell-type. (prokaryota or eukaryota)

Kingdom is a little more specific and there are 6 known kingdoms. (i.e. Animalia, plantae, eubacteria, Archeabacteria, Fungi, and Protista)

Under each kingdom, the organisms are further subcategorized based on similar characteristics that make them different from other organisms found in the same kingdom.

Under each phylum they are further categorized based on more specific traits and the rest follows, getting more specific at each level.

it also supports my hypothesis. if you rest first you can squeeze the clothespin more times. from the data i collected the average of the eight people concluded exercise makes your muscles more fatigued and less able to squeeze the clothespin compared to resting before squeezing.
