Solution

The correct option is D Phyla, Divisions
In the taxonomic hierarchy, Phylum follows Kingdom (in the descending order). Simply put, many phyla make up a kingdom. In the Plant Kingdom, however, the term "Phylum" is rarely used, and replaced with "Division". Thus, animals of different phyla make up Kingdom Animalia, while plants of different divisions make up Kingdom Plantae.
