Only $(ii)$

Vedclass · Answer

(B) Statement $(i)$ is incorrect because nomenclature,not classification,provides standardized names to organisms.Classification is the process by which anything is grouped into convenient categories based on some easily observable characters.Statement $(ii)$ is incorrect because taxonomy includes characterization,identification,nomenclature,and classification,whereas classification is just one step of taxonomy.However,in the context of standard biology questions,statement $(ii)$ is often considered the most technically incorrect definition as taxonomy is a broader field.Statement $(iii)$ is correct; Carolus Linnaeus proposed binomial nomenclature.Statement $(iv)$ is correct; $ICZN$ governs zoological names.Since the question asks for incorrect statements,and $(i)$ and $(ii)$ are both technically incorrect,but $(ii)$ is the most common answer in such multiple-choice formats regarding the definition of taxonomy,the best fit is $(ii)$.
