Scientific names never differ among scientists.
Because common names differ with language, while scientific names are always the same, no matter what language. Ex: Canis Lupis
Yes, a field guide typically includes both common names and scientific names of species to help readers easily identify and learn about the organisms being described. Common names can vary regionally, so including scientific names provides a universal reference point for accurate identification.
Scientific names provide a standardized way to identify and classify organisms across different languages and regions. They avoid confusion that can arise from different common names for the same organism. Scientific names are based on a standardized system (binomial nomenclature) established by Linnaeus, which includes genus and species names.
A scientific name is an accepted name by the the scientific society, and is understood worldwide. A common name can be different according to where, or which dialect is used. For instance, the Wild Geranium (Geranium maculatum) has one scientific name, but several common names, such as: Alum-Root, American Tormentil, Chocolate Flower, Old-Maid's-Nightcap, Fluxweed, Spotted Cranesbill.
Common names might not be as common as you think. Organisms can be known by several different common names, depending on when and where you are. Inversely, several different plants may be referred to with the same common name, depending on their similarities. Scientific names never change, and no two differing organisms have the same scientific name. This allows for a better understanding and grouping of organisms within the scientific community.
things are given scientific names by their charactertics and it is important because scientist can talk about same species without Any confusion
Common names vary greatly from one location to another. One example is the mountain lion, also known as the puma and cougar, as well as several other common names. However, scientific names are the same worldwide. The scientific name of the puma/cougar/mountain lion is Puma concolor. So if you want to talk to other scientists about this animal, you would use the scientific name rather than the common name to avoid confusion.
One of the scientific names for storm clouds is Nimbus. If you go to the official NOAA website, you can find a scientist who will answer your question about storms.
