The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "In the system of classification, which one of the following is NOT a family or order?", we need to analyze each option provided: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Classification System**: The biological classification system is hierarchical and includes several levels: Kingdom, Phylum (or Division), Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. We need to identify which of the given options does not fit into the categories of family or order. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option 1: Chlorophyta**: This term refers to a division (or phylum) of green algae. It is not a family or an order. - **Option 2: Leguminosae**: This is a family name, specifically for leguminous plants (now often referred to as Fabaceae). Therefore, it is a family. - **Option 3: Angiospermae**: This term refers to a class or division of flowering plants. It is not classified as a family or an order. - **Option 4: Pindales**: This is an order within the angiosperms, specifically referring to certain flowering plants. 3. **Identifying the Correct Answer**: - From the analysis, both Chlorophyta and Angiospermae do not belong to the categories of family or order. However, Angiospermae is classified as a class or division, while Chlorophyta is a division of algae. - Leguminosae is a family, and Pindales is an order. 4. **Conclusion**: Since the question asks for the option that is neither a family nor an order, the correct answer is **Angiospermae**. ### Final Answer: **Angiospermae** (Option 3) is NOT a family or order.
