1. Capability to reproduce to produce similar offspring
2. Ability to grow from inside
3. Ability to sense and respond to environmental stimuli
4. Metabolism inside a defined boundary of a cell

The binomial system of nomenclature of living organisms was given by:
| 1. | Carl Woose | 2. | Copeland |
| 3. | Chatton | 4. | Carl Linnaeus |
The number of species that are known and described ranges between:
| 1. | 1.2 and 1.3 million | 2. | 1.4 and 1.5 million |

Identify the correct chronological order of the taxonomic hierarchy from lowest to highest:
1. Family – Order – Class – Phylum
2. Family – Class – Order – Phylum
3. Order – Family – Class – Phylum
4. Order – Class – Phylum – Family
Match each item in Column I with one in Column II and choose your answer from the codes given below:
| COLUMN I | COLUMN II |
| Taxonomical aid | Feature |
| I. Flora | a. Useful in providing information for identification of names of species found in an area |
| II. Manuals | b. Contains the actual account of habitat and distribution of plants of a given area. |
| III. Monographs | c. Contain information on any one taxon |
Codes:
| I | II | III | |
| 1. | a | b | c |
| 2. | c | b | a |
| 3. | b | a | c |
| 4. | b | c | a |
The scientific term for biological classification categories is:
