Answer 1

C. Binomial nomenclature

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial nomenclature is the system of naming organisms using two parts, the genus name followed by the species name, such as Homo sapiens (the scientific name for humans). This naming system was developed by Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus in the 18th century and is still used today by scientists worldwide. It helps to provide a standardized and universally recognized way of identifying and classifying different species of organisms.
