Answer 1

Answer:

Binomial nomenclature is basically the scientific classification of organisms, or taxonomy, using a latin name. It uses the genus and the species. For instance, the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus uses binomial nomenclature because Staphylococcus is the genus, while aureus is the species.

Biology Dictionary states, "The genus name is also called the generic name and always begins with a capital letter. For example, binomial name for cats is Felis catus. The genus name must be unique within each kingdom (see image below) but the same genus can be used in more than one kingdom. [. . .] The species within the genus is known by other names depending on the discipline. For general usage, the species is also called the specific descriptor. In botany, it is called the specific epithet and specific name in used in zoology. A species name can be used more than once within a kingdom.The species name always begins with a lower case letter. It can be a noun or an adjective and it must agree with the Latin gender of the genus name; masculine, feminine or neuter. For example, if the gender of the genus is masculine, the species name should end in -us, -a or -um. An example of this is Passer domesticus, the house sparrow, in which Passer has a masculine gender. Endings for feminine species names include -is and -e and -or is used for neuter genders."
