Binomial Nomenclature is a process of giving name to things _ binomial means two hence every living thing is given two name mostly in latin
eg. homo sapiens 
bos bubalis

According to the binomial system of nomenclature, the scientific name of an organism consist of two separate components – first on designates the genus(generic name) and the second one designates the species (specific name). For example, the scientific binomial name of human species is Homo sapiens, where first name Homo is generic and the second name sapiens is a specific. Homo sapiens are understood to mean humans all over the world. Since this system of naming organisms gives two names to an organism, it is known as a binomial nomenclature. 


Advantages _ It helps to classify organisms in a neat and organised way without confusion by using common names like "star fish" -Asteroidea echinoderms. since there are many a different species of the same organism, we use the species name first and its class second. This really helps narrow down all the different types in one very nice and organised chart that biologist can use to quickly refer to a specific organism.

Heya user !!!

Here's the answer you are looking for

Binomial Nomenclature is the way of giving an organism a scientific name which is universally accepted. It was first proposed by Carolus Linnaeus. Binomial Nomenclature of an organism is in Latin irrespective of the organism.

The Binomial Nomenclature of an organism contains its generic name and its specific epithet.

The generic name is written first starting with the capital letter and the specific epithet is written after the generic name starting with the small letter
generic name and specific epithet written separately.

for example the name of human beings is Homo sapiens
homo \: sapians
Where Homo is the generic name and sapiens is the specific epithet.

♦When typed the Binomial Nomenclature is written in italics but when handwritten the generic name and specific epithet are underlined separately.


→It's advantages are

1. The scientific names are universally accepted and hence everyone can identify the organism when represented by their scientific name.

2. It also helps in identifying the similar species and grouping them together depending on the similarities and differences.
