What is taxonomy? - Answer-The science of naming and classifying organisms. Who is the "Father" of Taxonomy? - Answer-Carolus Linnaeus Binomial nomenclature - Answer-Each species is assigned a unique two-part name. The first part is a noun that designates the genus and the second part is an adjective that modifies the noun called specific epithet. Modern hierarchy system of classification. Rules for scientific naming - Answer-1. Typically latinized 2. Two part name: Genus and species 3....

domain Bacteria - domain of unicellular prokaryotes that have cell walls containing peptidoglycans. homologous structures - Structures in different species that are similar because of common ancestry. classification - the process of naming and assigning organisms or groups of organisms to a taxon analogous structures - have the same function in different groups but do not have a common ancestry analogy - similarity due to convergence ancestral traits - more primitive features, such as te...

Taxonomy The field of biology that is involved in naming, describing, and classifying organisms, both extinct species and extant species International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN) The formal rules used by scientists in naming to promote stability and universality in the scientific names of animals and other organisms.
