What Is Binomial Nomenclature?
Binomial nomenclature:
Binomial means having two terms. I t is the biological system of naming the organisms in which the name is composed of a two-term naming system. It uses two different terms to name the species, plants, animals, and living organisms.
It is also known as Binary Nomenclature.
The two terms consist of a generic epithet which is a genus (category) of that species, and a specific epithet that indicates the species itself.
This two-term naming system can also use some other different languages to create such scientific names.
These scientific names are unique and help in identifying organisms anywhere in the world.
Example: Rana Temporaria ( Common Frog)
Here, rana is the generic name and temporaria is the specific name.
