Karl Von Linne was involved with which branch of science?

(a) Morphology

(b) Taxonomy

(c) Physiology

(d) Medicine

Answers (1)

Answer- (b)

Karl Von Linne is also known as Carl Linnaeus. He made significant contributions to the naming and classification of living organisms and proposed the binomial system of nomenclature which is a formal system of naming living organisms. It consists of 2 parts- the first part is Genus and the second part is Species. It is always written in italics.

Explanation for the incorrect options:

  • (a) Morphology: While taxonomy involves studying the morphology (form and structure) of organisms, Linnaeus focused on classification rather than solely on morphological details.
  • (c) Physiology: Physiology deals with the functions and processes within living organisms, which was not Linnaeus's primary focus.
  • (d) Medicine: Linnaeus studied medicine during his early career, but his major contributions were in taxonomy, not in medical science
