Solution

The correct option is D Division
In botany, ranks/levels are used for the classification of organisms on the basis of hierarchy. The rank 'division' is used for the plants instead of 'phylum' which is used for the animals. The term 'phyta' is used as a suffix while describing various divisions in the plant kingdom. (Example: Division Bryophyta).
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
