Question

Notice that the genus name is always capitalized; the species name is not capitalized. The scientific name is also written in italics; if italics are not available, the genus name and specific epithet are underlined. (Newspapers usually break these rules.) If a species is written more than once, it is accepted convention to write out the full genus and species name the first time and to abbreviate the genus name every time thereafter. For example, if white oak is being described, the first use would be written as Quercus alba, and each subsequent naming would appear as Q. alba. PROCEDURE Figure 3.3 shows the taxonomic classification of the domestic dog. Observe the figure and answer the questions. 1. To which domain does the domestic dog belong? 2. To which class does the domestic dog belong? 3. What other animals belong to this class? Name two. 4. What do you think animals that belong to this class have in common? 5. To which taxonomic order does the domestic dog belong?

For each scientific name, indicate what is wrong and then correct it to the appropriate format. A few rules to remember: - The genus is capitalized, and the species is lowercase. - When a scientific name is typed, it must be put in italics. When it is handwritten, it must be underlined. - When abbreviating the scientific name, you must include additional characteristics of the genus name when you have species with a genus name that begins with the same character. For example, Chinchilla chinchilla and Chiropotes chiropotes would be abbreviated as Ch. chinchilla and Ch. chiropotes. Scientific Name What's Wrong Correct Format Homo sapiens Pan paniscus Pan troglodytes

00:01 Hello everyone in this question we have been asked about the domestic dog domain.
00:08 So first of all let us discuss about the rule that is followed in the scientific names.
00:14 So the first rule is that the scientific names are always written in italics and if it is handwritten then one must underline the words.
00:29 Words that is genus and species should be underline the second rule is that the genus is always capitalized and the species is written in the small letters and when it is written if it is written as the and then written the genus species mean if it is written in the first use then we need to write the complete name of the genus as well as the species.
01:06 But after the subsequent uses, we can write only the initial letter of the genus and then the species name...
