Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -A scientific name typically consists of two parts-the generic name and the specific epithet, which are simply the genus and species names respectively. It does not provide information about the family of the organism. For example, the scientific name of humans is Homo sapiens.
Detailed explanation-2: -The first word is the name of the genus to which the organism belongs. The second word is the specific epithet or specific term of the species. Together, the genus plus the specific epithet make up the species name. The species name and scientific name are synonyms.
