The International Code of Biological Nomenclature is the set of rules and recommendations dealing with the formal scientific names that are given to plants and animals.
Its intent is that each taxonomic group has only one correct name that is accepted worldwide. The value of a scientific name is that it is an identifier; it is not necessarily of descriptive value, or even accurate.
International code of Viral Nomenclature (ICVN) is applicable for viruses.
So, the correct option is 'Both B and C'.
