The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Artificial Classification**: - Artificial classification is a system that categorizes organisms based on specific characteristics rather than evolutionary relationships. It often focuses on observable traits. 2. **Identifying Key Characteristics**: - In artificial classification, a limited number of morphological (physical) traits are used to classify organisms. This can include features like the number of stamens, styles, and stigmas in plants. 3. **Comparison with Other Classification Systems**: - Unlike natural classification systems that consider a wide range of evolutionary and genetic traits, artificial systems prioritize a few distinct characteristics. 4. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the correct answer to the question about artificial classification is that it relies on "one or few morphological characters." **Final Answer**: One or few morphological characters are considered in an artificial system of classification. ---
