The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Natural System of Classification**: - The natural system of classification groups organisms based on their similarities and shared characteristics. - It emphasizes the relationships among organisms, particularly focusing on their common ancestry. 2. **Identifying Drawbacks**: - One significant drawback of the natural system of classification is that it places more emphasis on natural characteristics (like morphology) rather than on evolutionary relationships. - This system does not adequately consider the evolutionary importance of the traits being analyzed. 3. **Evaluating Options**: - **Option A**: "Classifies the plants in up to specified level" - This is an advantage, not a drawback. - **Option B**: "The floral characters are given more importance" - This is also an advantage, as floral characters can aid in classification. - **Option C**: "The evolutionary importance is not considered" - This is a valid drawback of the natural system of classification. - **Option D**: "Vegetative characters are not considered" - This is incorrect as vegetative characters are indeed considered. 4. **Conclusion**: - The correct answer is **Option C**: The evolutionary importance is not considered.
