Solution

Plant classification:

  1. Plant taxonomy, also known as classification, is the study of identifying organisms and categorizing them into hierarchical groups (e.g., kingdom, division (phylum), class, order, family, genus, and species).
  2. Plant classification is based on sexual features in an "artificial system." Plant classification is sometimes referred to as the sexual system.

Six major hierarchical groups have been developed within each kingdom by the scientists:

  1. Phyla (or divisions in the Plantae kingdom)
  2. Classes
  3. Orders
  4. Families
  5. Genera
  6. Species
