Solution

The correct option is C A few orders which could not be placed satisfactory in the classification.
George Bentham and Joseph Hooker have proposed the natural system of classification which has been described in the book Genera Plantarum. The information about the classification of Phanerogams has been discussed in the book. In this system, the seed plants were classified as Dicotyledons, Gymnosperms and Monocotyledons. There were many plants which were not placed in any specific class and were called as the disputed orders. These plants were placed under Ordines Anomali.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
