B) Asteraceae
The name “Asteraceae” is derived from the Greek word “aster,” meaning “star,” referring to the star-shaped inflorescence that many members of this family exhibit. This family, also known as the daisy or composite family, includes plants like daisies, sunflowers, and asters, which all have characteristic head-like clusters of small individual flowers.
