    So, the correct option is 'Holotype'.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    Solution
    Biological names are regarded legitimate when, they are not illegitimate, very popular and have their holotypes.
    So, answer is - 'All of the above'.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    Thus, the correct answer is option D. 
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Family is placed between
    Solution
    The organisms are classified in the hierarchical system on the basis of the different ranks. The seven essential ranks of taxa in the descending order are the kingdom, division/phylum, class, order, family, genus and species. The number of shared characters decrease as one moves towards the higher ranks. The family is the rank which is placed between the order and genus. 
    Thus, the correct answer is option A. 
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    In a scientific name, the name of author is published in
    Solution
    When citing a scientific name including its author, the author's name is often abbreviated.  Example,  Homo sapiens Linnaeus is written as Homo sapiens L.

    A species is taxonomically
    Solution
    Species are those which are capable of interbreeding among themselves and can exchange the genes. These are closely related. The offsprings produced as a result of interbreeding will be fertile in nature. So, the correct answer is option D.

  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Two plants can be conclusively said to belong to the same species, if they
    Solution
    Species refers to the basic unit of biological classification and a taxonomic rank, it defines a group of potentially interbreeding natural populations and can be reproductively isolated from other similar groups. While a molecular marker would have given a clearer distinction, this works out as a useful formulation that shows the impact of sexual reproduction on the dynamics of natural selection.
