Who credited with the introduction of binomial system of nomenclature of plants?
1 Linnaeus
2 John Ray
3 Bentham and Hooker
4 Aristotle
Explanation:
The system of binomial nomenclature was established by Carolus Linnaeus in 1750 ( According to some - 1751) - Linnaeus published his work in the book "Species Plantarum" in 1753. - It is a system of classification and naming a species given it a unique scientific name to avoid confusion - Binominal nomenclature consist of two names in which first one indicate genus names while latter contains species names. For example - Rana tigrina is a binominal nomenclature for frog in which Rana indicates genus name while tigrina indicate species name.

Biosystematics aims at: -
1 The classification of organisms based on broad morphological characters
2 Delimiting various taxa of organism and establishing their relationships
3 The classification of organisms based on their evolutionary history and establishing their phylogeny on the totality of various parameters from all fields of studies
4 Identification and arrangement of organisms on the basis of cytological characteristics
Explanation:
Biosystematics is the study of identification, nomenclature, classification and relationships amongst living beings. The study of genetic development of plant and animal population is the basis of biosystematic which is the classification of species. As a results, it takes into account the evolutionary history of these creatures and develops their phylogeny using a variety of different factors from all different scientific domains.
