The name includes the family and domain.


The name includes the family and genus.


The name includes the kingdom and phylum.


The name includes the genus and species.

Respuesta :

The answer is The name includes the genus and species.

In binomial nomenclature, the name of the species consists of two (Greek: bi-) names or terms (Greek: nome). According to this system, t
he first word indicates the genus classification of an organism and the second word indicates the species within a genus. For example, Latin name for a white oak is Quercus alba and for a red oak is Quercus rubra. Quercus is the name of the genus and it includes both white oak (Q. alba) and red oak (Q. rubra). The second words - alba and rubra, respectively, indicate the name of the species within the genus Quercus.
