Prairies dogs are not dogs jellyfish are not fish. How do you think using scientific names instead of common names helps prevent misconceptions?

Well if you memorize the system of scientific names, you won't be misleaded. Some common names are very decieving and there are millions of species out there. So why memorize every single one when you can learn one system to name all of them scientifically
Hope this helps!
Thank me if you agree
