Amendment, on its own, should not be capitalized. However, if you are specifying an amendment, such as the 1st, you must. For example:

"Is there an amendment that protects Americans from cruel and unusual punishment?"

"Yes, that is the Eighth Amendment."

"Amendment" is not a proper noun, so it does not need to be capitalized. However, if the amendment you are referring to is a particular amendment to a particular document, it may be capitalized. For instance, if you are referring to the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, both "Fourth" and "Amendment" are capitalized.

How do you properly write the scientific name didelphis marsupials?

The correct way to write the scientific name for the genus containing marsupials, including the opossum, is Didelphis. "Marsupials" is not part of the scientific name since it is a general term for a group of animals with a distinct reproductive system. So, the correct scientific name is Didelphis only.
