Solution
The correct option is C 3 sub classes
Bentham and Hooker divided the Angiospermae into two classes: Dicotyledons and Monocotyledons and in between this they have placed Gymnosperms. Dicotyledons is again divided into three subclasses. They are Polypetalae, Gamopetale and Monochlamydeae. These sub classes are again divided into series. Series is again divided into order or cohort and order into family. So, the correct answer is '3 sub classes'.
