Why is the naming system used in modern taxonomy called a binomial system? O It is based on study of the natural biome, and is rooted in differences within the biome.
O It is a binary number code, indicating distance from a central ancestral species.
O The binomial terms are derived from imagined biological ideals.
O The system uses two names, one to indicate genus and one to indicate species.

Recent research by marine biologists suggests that bottlenose dolphins have names for themselves. scientists played sounds they had identified as the names of particular dolphins, putting them through a synthesizer so that they did not sound like the voices of particular dolphins. the researchers found that dolphins would respond to the names of other dolphins that they were related to or associated with, but they ignored the names of strangers. this discovery suggests a much greater degree of self-awareness in aquatic mammals than was previously suspected. if this research holds up, what does it suggest about dolphins?
