Answer 2

Answer:

Word endings for plant and animal taxa are different.

Explanation:

Taxonomy is the scientific study responsible for determining the systematic classification of different things into categories.

In biology, taxonomy is the branch responsible for the identification and classification of all animals and plants that inhabit the Earth, based on the different characteristics they share with each other.

As a way of classifying living things, the taxonomy decided that the end of the words of taxons for plants and animals would be different. Taxons are used in the classification of living beings.

Thus, the taxonomy decided that in Zoology the family name in animals receives the suffix "Idae" and that of the subfamilies suffix "Inae".  In vegetables, the family name is given the suffix "aceae".
