Correct Answer

Solution

Oswald Tippo, University of Illiniois 1942, classified plant kingdom into two sub kingdoms: Thallophyta (thalloid plant body without distinct alternation of generations) and Embryophyta (organ level differentiation of plant body with regular alternation of sporophyte and gametophyte generations). The sub-kingdom thallophyta was divided into 10 phyla: Cyanophyta (Blue green algae), Euglenophyta (Grass green algae), Chrysophyta (Yellow green algae), Chlorophyta (Green algae), Pyrrophyta (Golden brown algae), Phaeophyta (Brown algae), Rhodophyta (Red algae), Schizomycophyta (Bacteria), Myxomycophyta (Slime molds) and Eumycophyta (True fungi). Thus, the correct answer is option D.
