What is the scientific name of the tree of life?

Answer 1

The term "tree of life" appears to be a metaphor comparing the complexity of life to the many branches of a tree, so there is either no such plant called the tree of life, or there are a number of plants by this name dependant on global location.

The breadfruit tree, of the Philippines and of other Pacific Islands, is probably the closest to being awarded this distinction due to the incredible nutritional value of its fruits, not to mention its value as timber in early shipbuilding. Its scientific name is Artocarpus altilis.

Answer 2

The scientific name of the tree of life is "Lignum vitae," which translates to "wood of life." This name is commonly used for various species of trees in the genus Guaiacum, known for their dense and durable wood.
