Explanation:
Carolus Linnaeus, a Swedish botanist, introduced the binomial nomenclature system in his book 'Species Plantarum' (1753). This system assigns a two-part scientific name—genus and species—to every organism. For example, Homo sapiens. Darwin proposed natural selection, Hooke discovered cells, and Mendel laid the foundation of genetics. Linnaeus is also known as the father of taxonomy. Binomial names are universally accepted and italicized in print.

Explanation:
Erythropoietin (EPO) is a glycoprotein hormone that is the primary regulator of red blood cell production (erythropoiesis). It is primarily produced and secreted by the interstitial fibroblasts in the kidneys (specifically in the peritubular capillary bed) in response to cellular hypoxia (low oxygen levels). A small amount is also produced by the liver. EPO travels to the bone marrow, where it stimulates the proliferation and differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells into mature red blood cells.
