Binomial nomenclature
 is the formal naming system for living things that all scientists use. It
gives every species a two-part scientific name. For example, a ladybug goes by the fancy
name of 
Harmonia axyridis
.
The first part of a scientific name, like 
Harmonia
, is called the genus. A 
genus
 is typically the
name for a small group of closely related organisms. The second part of a scientific
name, 
axyridis
 in this example, is the 
specific epithet
. It is used to identify a particular
species as separate from others belonging to the same genus. Together, the genus plus the
specific epithet is the full scientific name for an organism.

Because scientific names are unique species identifiers, they ensure
that there is never any confusion as to which organism a scientist may
be referring. Additionally, there are some important rules that must be
followed to keep all binomial names standardized
The entire two-part name must be written in italics (or underlined
when handwritten).
The genus name is always written first.
The genus name must be capitalized.
The specific epithet is never capitalized.

bleakest parts of the ecosphere.

Protozoa are classified into Four main types based on their motility
Flagellates
Flagellates move by help of Flagella (a tail-like
structure ). The movement is whip like
 Ciliates
Ciliates protozoa have movement through cilia( fine
hair like structure attached with their body).
Sarcodina
Major loco-motor organelles in Sarcodina is
pseudopodia (Pseudo means false, 
podia 
means Foot)
 Sporozoates
Sporozoates are the only non-motile form of protozoa.

Most species of free-living protozoa are aerobic. They cannot live
without oxygen. Aerobic protozoa are tiny and so are capable of
getting oxygen from the liquid medium by diffusion. Example:
Amoeba proteus

  6. C Characteristics of Protozoa haracteristics of Protozoa Protozoa do not have a cell wall cell wall and therefore can have a variety of shapes Body is unicellular two regions; ectoplasm and endoplasm. The body is either bilaterally, radial symmetry or asymmetry. unicellular performs all functions of the body. The cytoplasm is divided into Protozoa prefer living in moist and aquatic habitats. Their cysts can be found in the bleakest parts of the ecosphere. There are both H Heterotrophic eterotrophic and Autotrophic Autotrophic based on their type of nutrition. Live Live freely freely, may be parasitic parasitic or symbiotic symbiotic. Respiration is by diffusion. Movement is by pseudopodia, flagella, cilia pseudopodia, flagella, cilia. . Reproduction occurs asexually and sexually. Excretion is via contractile vacuoles or by diffusion.

  9. Respiration Respiration in Protozoa in Protozoa Based on the mode of respiration, protozoa are classified into Based on the mode of respiration, protozoa are classified into two two groups. groups. Aerobic Aerobic Protozoa: Protozoa: Most species of free-living protozoa are aerobic. They cannot live without oxygen. Aerobic protozoa are tiny and so are capable of getting oxygen from the liquid medium by diffusion. Example: Amoeba proteus. Anaerobic Anaerobic Protozoa They can survive in the absence of oxygen and are not commonly found amidst eukaryotic organisms. Normally, anaerobic eukaryotes are either parasites or symbionts of multicellular organisms that have originated from aerobic ancestors. Example: Giardia. Protozoa
