Solution

The taxon which includes related species is (4) genus.

Here's a step-by-step explanation:

  1. The taxonomic hierarchy, from broadest to most specific, is: Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species.

  2. A genus is a rank in the biological classification (taxonomy) that groups together closely related species. For example, the genus Canis includes species like Canis lupus (wolf) and Canis familiaris (domestic dog).

  3. Therefore, the taxon which includes related species is the genus.
