Answer:

The correct answer is Giraffa camelopardalis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scientific name of the giraffe is Cervus camelopardalis or Giraffa camelopardalis.

A binomial nomenclature is the name that scientists use to name different organisms and their classifications.

Its name comes from the Arabic language and means fast-walker, although the term "giraffa" comes from Italian, while the term "Camelopard" is an archaic English language.

This animal is characterized by having a very long neck as well as its legs. It is a mammalian and hervivoro animal that comes from Africa. Due to its height, it is considered the tallest living animal that lives on the Earth's surface.
