Why do you think most scientific names are in Latin?
Latin is a universal language that allows scientists from different countries to communicate effectively without language barriers. It also gives scientific names consistency and stability, helping to ensure accuracy and precision in taxonomy and classification, which are essential in the field of science. Additionally, Latin has a long-standing tradition in scientific literature and was widely used by early scientists and naturalists when formalizing the system of scientific naming.
Which term refers to the scientific naming of organisms in which a two part latin name indicates genus and species?
Binomial nomenclature is the term that refers to the scientific naming of organisms where a two-part Latin name is used to indicate the genus and species of the organism. This naming system was developed by Carl Linnaeus to provide a standardized way of identifying and classifying living organisms.

What is naming system developed by Linnaeus?
He established conventions for the naming of living organisms using binomial nomenclature (the genus name followed by the species name), and developed an hierarchical system for classification of organisms, which became known as the Linnaean taxonomy. The Linnaean system classified nature within a hierarchy, starting with Kingdoms which were divided into Classes, divided into Orders, divided into Genera, divided into Species. The Linnaean system of scientific classification is widely used in the biological sciences, and the expansion of knowledge has led to development of the number of hierarchical levels within the system (phyla, family, subclasses, etc.) and there has been an increase in the administrative requirements of the system. It does remain the only extant working classification system that is universally acceptanced by the scientific community.
