Q1) What is Taxon?
Ans:)
A taxon is a special unit used in classification which can represent any level of grouping of organism species based in certain easily observable common characteristics like Maize (species), roses (genus), grasses (family), conifers (order), dicots (class), seed plants (division), etc. Or. It can be also stated as given by Mayr (in 1964). Taxonomic group of any rank that is sufficiently distinct to to be worthy of being assigned to a definite category.

Q2) What is bionimal nomenclature? Who proposed it?
Ans:)
Binomial nomencalture is the system of providing organisms with appropriate or significant and distant names consisting of two words, first the generic and second specific. It was proposed and developed by Carlous Linnaeus (1707-1778). The first word is genus and the second word of a specific epithet is species.

Q3) The rules of binomial nomenclature?
Ans:)
Some of the rules are given below (giving a total of 5):
1) Each and every organism is given only one name consisting of only two words, generic and specific.
2) The generic name is written first. It is followed by specific name and then the name of the discoverer in either full or in abbreviation.
3) The specific name can Ben called singular or compound. Ususally it begins with a small letter.
4) The name of the author is kept in Roman script.
5) The names of families and subfamilies should be based upon on the name of type of genus.

Q4) a) taxonomy: It is the branch of study based on arrangement of law, that deals with principles and procedures of identification, nomenclature and classification of organisms.
b) species: Species (used both forms singular and plural) is a natural population of individuals or group of populations which resemble one another (in one or the other way) in all essential morphological and reproductive characters so that they are able to interbreed freely (not in the case of humans) and produce fertile offspring (sometimes infertile). Example is mango which I Species of indica of genus Magnifera (collectively, Magnifera indica).

Q5) Taxonomical aids. What is it?
Ans:)
Taxonomical aids are nothing but, the techniques, procedures and stored information that are useful in identification and classification of organisms. They are required because of the taxonomic study of plants, animals and other organisms are basic to almost all branches of biological studies for their proper identification and finding their relationships with other species.


Q6) Various taxonomical tools and explain them.
Ans:)
Herbarium, botanical gardens, museums, zoological parks (zoos) and key are important tools used in identification of plants and animals.
1) Herbarium is a place to keep dried and pressed plant specimens, mounted on sheets and presented are kept systematically according to a widely accepted system of classification.
2) Botanical gardens are extremely and sufficiently large sized tracts where plants of different types and areas are grown for scientific and most importantly, educational purposes.
3) Museum are used to exhibit rare antiques and extremely precious items from the ancient greeks and past crendentials. It is for, mostly available, observation and study called collection. They have various collections which they exhibit.
4) Zoos or Zoological parks are place where various animals are kept which are living within enclosures, displayed to the public and may be used for study. Animals may also be bred. They are established where high standard of care is given and observers in fact they are bred and live in more natural conditions.
5) A key is used for identification and is a artificial analytic device having a list of statements with dichotomic table of alternate characteristics which is used for identifying organisms. Ususally used for a couplet or two different contrasting characters.

Next time post questions separately. Hands are paining, don't kno how to perform the next surgical operation.
