Accepted Answer

Taxonomy involves only plant classification.

Question 5

Mayr's biological concepts of species is mainly based on

Accepted Answer

Mayr proposed the origin of species in his book 'Systematics and the Origin of Species'. He told that when a group of the population becomes separated from its original group by time or geography, then there is an evolution of new traits in them and they cannot interbreed. This isolation creates new species.So, the correct answer is 'Reproductive isolation'.

Question 6

Systematics is the branch of biology that deals with classification of living organisms.

Accepted Answer

The aim of classification is to group the organisms.

Question 7

Here are the points to classify a dog:1-Chordata2-Class3-Carnivora4-Family5-Canis6-Species. If one has to classify a dog according to the hierarchy, each point corresponds to which of the following?

Accepted Answer

The give taxonomical hierarchy of dog is Phylum- ChordataClass- MammaliaOrder- CarnivoraFamily- CanidaeGenus- CanisSpecies- familiaris

Question 8

Which of the following is correct combination for wheat?

Accepted Answer

Wheat belongs to genus Triticum. Triticum represents to free-threshing wheat. Family Poaceae or Gramineae is a big and nearly universal family of grasses.

Thus, the correct option is 'Genus: Triticum, Family: Poaceae, Order: Poales, Class: Monocotyledonae'.

Question 9

Of all the taxa only one that exists in nature as biologically cohesive unit is species.

Accepted Answer

Members of the same species can only interbreed.
