Solution
The correct option is D Latin
Carolus Linnaeus used latin while giving scientific names to plants. In fact, he was so committed to using latin that he changed his original name from Carl Linnae to Carolus Linnaeus (latin). He used latin because it being a dead language, won't change over the course of time and lead to confusion in names.
