Solution
The correct option is A Compositae
Compositae classification is as follows:
Gamopetalae - Petals fused
Inferae - Ovary inferior, equal number of stamens and petals
Asterales - Stamens epipetalous, locule 1, ovule 1.
It is regarded as occupying the highest position in the vegetable kingdom because the members of the family have very efficient adaptations for survival on the land and thus called as phylogenetically most advanced.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
