Question

Which book introduced binomial nomenclature for the first time?

• A. Histoire Naturelle
• B. Systema Naturae
• C. Historia Naturalis

Answer 1

The correct option is B Systema Naturae

Binomial nomenclature is the system of naming organisms using a two-part (generic name and a specific name).

Hence, option B is the correct answer.
