To solve the question regarding the classification of a plant with specific characteristics, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Characteristics of the Plant**: - The plant has a bulb. - It has trimerous flowers (flowers with parts in multiples of three). - It has 6 stamens arranged in two whorls. 2. **Determine the Class in Bentham and Hooker's Classification**: - Based on the characteristics mentioned, particularly the presence of trimerous flowers and the arrangement of stamens, we can conclude that this plant belongs to the class **Monocotyledonae** (or Monocots). Monocots typically have flower parts in multiples of three and exhibit bulbous structures. 3. **Find the Number of Natural Orders in the Class**: - According to Bentham and Hooker's classification system, the class Monocotyledonae contains a specific number of natural orders. - It is known that there are **34 natural orders** present in the class Monocotyledonae. 4. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the answer to the question regarding the number of natural orders present in the class that includes the described plant is **34**. ### Final Answer: The number of natural orders present in the class Monocotyledonae is **34**. ---
