Answer 1

The true statement regarding the taxonomic system is: The current taxonomic system is based on the Linnaean classification system.

The Linnaean system, developed by Carl Linnaeus in the 18th century, is the foundation of modern taxonomy, which classifies organisms into hierarchical categories such as kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. The other statements are not accurate; Charles Darwin contributed to the understanding of evolution but did not create the taxonomic system, not all extinct species have been cataloged, and not all current living species have been cataloged.
