What is binomial nomenclature?

Answer 1

Binomial nomenclature is the system of scientifically naming organisms using two terms - the genus name and the species name. This system was developed by Carl Linnaeus in the 18th century to provide a standardized way of naming and categorizing living organisms. The genus name is capitalized and the species name is written in lowercase, both terms are italicized or underlined when written. For example, Homo sapiens is the binomial name for humans, with being the genus and sapiens being the species.
