Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
A

Artificial system of classification arranges plants based on a few easily observable characters, such as leaf shape, flower color, or number of stamens.

It does not consider evolutionary relationships (phylogeny).

In contrast, natural systems use many characters, and phylogenetic systems focus on evolutionary trends.
