Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In biology, a phylum (/ˈfaɪləm/; plural: phyla) is a level of classification or taxonomic rank below kingdom and above class. Traditionally, in botany the term division has been used instead of phylum, although the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants accepts the terms as equivalent.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Animal Kingdom contains these seven Phyla: Porifera, Cnidaria, Platyhelminthes, Annelida, Mollusca, Arthropoda, and Chordata.
Detailed explanation-3: -There are two words, hence this system of naming organisms is called binomial nomenclature. The first word is the name of the genus, and the second word is the species name.
