💡 Explanation:
The scientific naming of an organism is termed as Binomial nomenclature. It was first given by Carl Linnaeus. In this system, the first section of the name indicates genus and the second one indicating the species name. Genus name should always start with capital letter and the species name should start with the small letter. In the biological name both the words, when handwritten are separately underlined or printed in italics.
So, the correct answer is ‘Panthera tigris and Pisum sativum'.
