Which scientist is traditionally credited with establishing and popularising binomial nomenclature?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Carolus Linnaeus

The correct answer is B, Carolus Linnaeus. He standardised and popularised the use of two-part scientific names, in which the first word is the genus and the second is the specific epithet. His 1753 work Species Plantarum was especially important in establishing this system for plants. Aristotle and Theophrastus made important early contributions to natural history, but Linnaeus is the scientist traditionally associated with modern binomial nomenclature.
