Scientists change the names of taxonomic groups to match the current nomenclature is probably NOT a reason for these changes.
Scientists change the names of taxonomic groups to match current nomenclature.
<u>Explanation:</u>
There are various main reasons why taxonomists from time to time require or choose, to modify the name of an organism such as a plant. Initially, the naming of plants is treated by a set of laws ( the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature ) which sets out how to accurately name plants and how to solve cases where two or more names have been used for one species.
It seldom happens that applying the rules requires us to change a name. For example, if a species named by one botanist turns out to have been before legitimately named by an elder botanist.
<span>Here are the missing options for the above question:
</span><span>1. The bacterial culture in test tube D was diluted so much that no pink bacteria were left in the sample.
2. The pink bacteria were not able to get enough energy from the nutrient broth in test tube D to live.
3. The white bacteria outcompeted the pink bacteria for the nutrients in the broth in test tube D.
4. The pink bacteria are sediment growers in nutrient broth and the micropipette could not reach them.

It was about Spread Plate Method of Isolation with nutrient broth. Therefore the best answer choice is:
