Which system of classification is also referred to as the 'Sexual System'?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Linnaeus's plant classification system

Direct answer: B, Linnaeus's plant classification system. Linnaeus classified plants mainly by visible sexual characters of flowers, especially the number, arrangement, union, and length of stamens and the number of pistils. Because reproductive or sexual characters formed the main basis, his artificial system became known as the Sexual System. A is incorrect because Bentham and Hooker proposed a natural system using many overall characters, not chiefly floral sexual characters. C is incorrect because Whittaker's system classified organisms into five kingdoms using features such as cell type, body organisation, nutrition, reproduction, and evolutionary relationships. D is incorrect because Haeckel's system concerned broad kingdom-level classification, not the Linnaean floral system. Memory cue: Sexual System = Linnaeus = stamens and pistils.
