Solution

The correct option is C Potato and tomato
The term taxon (plural - taxa) represents any group or rank in a biological classification into which related organisms are classified. Both potato and tomato may belong to the same family (solanaceae) but in hierarchical classification potato is a plant tuber and tomato is a fruit, hence potato and tomato do not represent similar category in hierarchy
So, the correct answer is 'Potato and tomato'.
