The classification system giving each organism two names is called ______________ ______________. 3. Organisms that can make their own food are called ______________________. 4. Single reproductive cells which grow into a new plant are called _______________________. 5. An animal without a backbone is called a ______________________. 6. Organisms that can’t make their own food are called ______________________. 7. Multicellular organisms that have a nucleus and absorb the organism that it is growing on is called a ______________________. 8. The process of grouping similar things together is called __________________. 9. Any living thing is called an ______________________. 10. A number of similar, closely related species are called __________________. 11. The science of classification is called ______________________. 12. A major, large group of similar organisms is called a ______________________. 13. An animal with a backbone ______________________. 14. What is the scientific name of a human? ______________ ______________ 15.
