Solution

The correct option is A Artificial
Carolus Linnaeus has described many species of plants and arranged them based on his system of classification which is based mainly on floral characters. He took into account only the structure of anthers and carpel. Since only some of the features were studied for classification, it was considered an artificial system of classification. The natural system of classification organisms is classified based on similarities that used a large number of characters.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
