Correct Answer: Carl Linnaeus


Solution : The correct answer is Carl L innaeus.

Carl Linnaeus, a Swedish botanist, biologist, physician, and naturalist, authored the book Genera Plantarum. As the father of modern taxonomy, his work established the modern system for identifying, and classifying creatures. The first book to use a binomial nomenclature system to classify plants into genera and species was Genera Plantarum, published in 1737. This method gives each species a unique two-word name that is still in use today and consists of the names of the genus, and the species.
