The correct option is D Raunkiaer
Plant life-form schemes constitute a way of classifying plants alternatively to the ordinary species-genus-family scientific classification. In colloquial speech, plants may be classified as trees, shrubs, herbs (forbs and graminoids), etc. A popular life-form scheme is the Raunkiaer system, devised by Danish botanist Christen C. Raunkiaer.
