The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Classification Systems**: - There are four main types of classification systems used for living organisms: practical classification, artificial classification, natural classification, and numerical classification. 2. **Defining Artificial Classification**: - Artificial classification relies on one or two specific morphological characters of organisms. This means that it does not consider the complete set of characteristics or anatomical features. 3. **Example of Artificial Classification**: - A prominent example of artificial classification is the system developed by Carl Linnaeus. He primarily used the arrangement of stamens (a part of the flower) as a single character to classify plants. 4. **Distinguishing from Other Classifications**: - Unlike natural classification, which uses complete morphology and anatomy, or numerical classification, which assesses numerous observable traits, artificial classification is limited to a few morphological traits. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the artificial system of classification is based on one or two morphological characters, not on anatomical features or a broad range of characteristics. ### Final Answer: The artificial system of classification is based on one or two morphological characters. ---
