Taxonomy is the science which deals with classification of organisms into groups on basis of their characteristics, studying them and naming them. In a way, it is how we file the organisms.
Nomenclature is the method of naming organism. In biology, we follow Binomial Nomenclature, adapted by Carlous Von Linnaes , in which the name is divided into two parts (generally latin terms)
Part 1 is the Genus name and it shall begin with a capital letter
Part 2 is the species name.
The scientific name should be italicized while typing and underlined while writing.
Examples:
Homo sapien (Human)
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Class: Mammalia
Order: Primates
Family: Hominidae
Genus: Homo
Species: H. sapiens
Panthera Leo (Lion)
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Class: Mammalia
Order: Carnivora
Family: Felidae
Genus: Panthera
Species: P. leo
Mangifera indica (Mango)
Kingdom: Plantae
Phylum: Phanerogamae
Class: Angiosperma
Order: Sapindales
Family: Anacardiaceae
Genus: Mangifera
Species: M. indica
(Note, i have bold the scientific names because Brainly does not have italic feature)
