Carolus Linnaeus

Linnaeus was a Swedish botanist and taxonomist. He is considered the founder of the binomial system of nomenclature and the originator of modern scientific classification of plants and animals. He studied botany and medicine and taught both at Uppsala. In Systema naturae, he presented his classification of plants, animals, and minerals; in Genera plantarum, he explained his system for classifying plants, which is based largely on the number of what parts of the flower?
