Hey mate!!

here is your answer:

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

There is a set of rules in taxonomy which is used around the globe to provide names of genus and species of an organism...! it is called

BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
_____________________

these names are important because they allow people throughout the world to communicate unambiguously about animal species or plant species...

Some of those rules are....

1. if you wanna name a species on the basis of a human's name, then

• if it's on the name of a female it should end in 'ae'
• if it's on the name of a male it should end in 'i'

Ex: Apostichus BarakObami (spider named after Barak Obama)

2. start the genus name with a capital letter and the species name with a small letter and you have a good start ^_^

3. Underline it out if you're writing or type it out in italics to indicate a Latin origin.

hope it helps you!!

Hi. Binomial nomenclature is a system of scientific naming of living things. Some of its rules include:

  1. Every scientific name consists of 2 words.
  2. The name consists of the genus and species of the living thing.
  3. The Genus comes first and the species comes second.
  4. The first letter of the Genus should be capital while the first letter of the species should be small.
  5. When written on paper, both the genus and the species should be separately underlined.
  6. When printed on paper, the scientific name should be italicized.
  7. The no. of letters in the genus as well as the species should be between 3 to 12.
  8. The genus and species are Greek or Latin words.
  9. The genus is always a noun or pronoun while the species is an adjective.
  10. The scientific name tells about the location of the origin of the living thing.

Hope it helps!
