Answer» CORRECT option is (b) To have a STANDARD name for an organism INSTEAD of having many names in different languages

To explain I would say: There are different languages and so different REGIONAL names for an organism. Therefore, scientists came up with the idea of binomial nomenclature. Binomial nomenclature is introduced to standardize the name of a LIVING organism.
