Q. Whcih group of individual animals and plants called Species?

A group of individual plants and animals that are fundamentally alike is treated as a ,species. Species is a part of the name of the plant and an animal. Species are 74 , separated by distinct morphological differences from other closely related forms. A species is a concept that is not defined in exact terms and is not absolute and inelastic. In developing concepts of species specimens are regarded as samples of living, reproducing populations of genetically related individuals. Names of species are binary combinations consisting of the name of the genus followed by a single specific epithet. If the epithet consists of two words you should either unite them or join them by a hyphen. You should know that symbols forming part of specific epithets as proposed by Linnaeus are transcribed, e.g. Pinus is the scientific name of a particular genus, Pinus nigra the name of a.species of that genus and Pinus nigra var caramanica is the name of a variety of that species. Similarly Dacus is the scientific name of a particular genus, Dacus uberrans the name of a species of that Genus. Pheretima is the scientific name of a particular genus, P. Posthuma the name of a species of that genus and P. posrhuma Id is the complete name indicating that Linnaeus is the original author. The basic language of the scientific names is Latin and names from other languages are Latinised. Many different kinds of species have developed by diverse evolutionary and genetic mechanisms. One thing about species concept you should remember is that many species are sexual, a few are asexual. Some have arisen by polyploidy, changes in chromosome number and mechanisms which need not to be emphasised at this level.
