Answer:Acer represents the genus name while
saccharum represents the species.
Explanation:
In a way to classify organisms, biologists used certain important common features to structure them into groups. The arrangement of living organisms in this hierarchy from the highest level to the lowest is as follows:
Kingdom--> phylum-->class-->order--> Family-->genus--> species.
The largest group of organisms is kingdom while species is the smallest unit of classification.
The common name of the plant used in the question above is sugar maple. Biologist, however, use a standard system to name living organisms. Each kind of organism is given two names, hence the term BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE.
--> The first name is the name of the genus to which the organism belongs.
--> The second name is the name of the species to which it belongs.
Both names are printed in italics with only the genus name having an initial capital letter. Hence, the scientific name of sugar maple is Acer saccharum( in italics).
Fossils up to 75,000 years old can be dated with Carbon-14.
Radio isotopes can be used for the age determination of the fossils. Carbon-14 is a common isotope which is used for that purpose. But the half- life of the Carbon-14 is relatively small as 5730 years. That means the amount of Carbon-14 will be half after every 5730 years. Hence, decay is very fast. So Carbon-14 cannot be used forage determination which is more than 75000 years due to the low accuracy.
That would be the Compound Microscope, it provides a high magnification that can visibly see movement in the cell, however, it has a low resolution. Hope it Helped!
I believe temperature is the answer
