Giant anteaters live in Central and South America. As their name suggests, they eat ants and termites. First, an anteater tears open insect nests with its long claws. Then, it extends its extremely long, sticky tongue into the nest to catch its prey. One anteater eats 35,000 ants and termites in a day.
Aardvarks have a lifestyle similar to anteaters but live in Africa. Like anteaters, aardvarks dig up ant and termite nests. They also extract insects with a long, sticky tongue. The two mammals are so similar that at first taxonomists thought they were closely related. However, further study showed that aardvarks are in the order Tubulidentata, while the anteaters are in the order Pilosa.
The levels of classification are shown in order from broadest to most specific. What are the levels of classification aardvarks have in common with anteaters? Choose the four that apply.
