The correct answer is:       [A]:  "The first word indicate the organism's genus classification." .Note:Answer choice: B:  "The first word is always lowercase." — is incorrect.     The first word is the 'genus' , and the first letter of the first word (i.e. the first letter of the genus) is always capitalized, and the rest of the first word is always in lowercase. Answer choice: C:  "The second word is always capitalized" —is incorrect.  The second word is the 'species' and, to the contrary, is always lowercase.Answer choice: D:  "The second word indicates the organism's genus classification." — As explained above, it is the first word that indicates the organism's genus classification, and it is the second word that indicates the organism's species classification.   As such, this explains which the correct answer is: Answer choice: [A]:       "The first word indicates the organism's genus classification."
