By using scientific names instead of common name , we can categorise, this helps in making it easier to understand the characteristics of a specific organism in an organised way.
The genus name and species name of an organism written together are called its specific name.
The name of the genus always begins with a capital letter.
The species name begins with the small letter.
The specific names are always italicised.
When handwritten, the genus name and the species name have to be underlined.
