Detailed explanation-1: -The binomial name consists of a genus name and specific epithet. The scientific names of species are italicized. The genus name is always capitalized and is written first; the specific epithet follows the genus name and is not capitalized. There is no exception to this.
Detailed explanation-2: -The binomial naming system is the system used to name species. Each species is given a name that consists of two parts. The first part is the Genus to which the species belongs and the second part is the species name. For example, Apis mellifera (the honey bee).
Detailed explanation-3: -The first part is known as the genus. The second part is the specific epithet. Together, they are known as the species, Latin binomial, or scientific name. These help us understand how plants are grouped together or classified.
