Answer:

The correct option is C. Different species can share the same common name.

Step-by-step explanation:

A single organism might have the many common names or it might happen that different species have the same common name in different parts of the world. Common names can be sued when people from the same country, speaking the same language are talking.

But as scientific research is carried out in all parts of the world, scientists made up the system of binomial nomenclature. Under this system, each specie is given a unique name .
