Answer 1

Hint: A scientific name is especially the taxonomic name of an organism that consists of a genus name and a specific epithet.

Complete answer:
The scientific name of Human beings is Homo sapiens. In it, Homo is the genus name and sapiens is the species name. Homo is the human genus, which also includes Neanderthals and many other extinct species of hominid; H. sapiens is the only surviving species of the genus Homo. The binomial name Homo sapiens was coined by Carl Linnaeus.

Human beings belong to class - Mammalian and Family - Hominidae.

Rana tigrina is the scientific name of Tiger.
Pavo criststus is the scientific name of Indian Peacock
Brassica rapa is the scientific name of Turnip.

Binomial Nomenclature is a formal system of naming species of living things by giving each a name composed of two parts, the first one indicating the genus and the second the specific epithet. Linnaeus first established the practise of binomial nomenclature.

Note: Taxonomy is a branch of biology that classifies all the living organisms. A taxon is a group of organisms that are classified as a unit. A system of the framework in classification in which taxonomic groups are arranged in a definite order, from higher to lower categories is called taxonomic hierarchy.
