Answer: (a) International Code for Botanical Nomenclature

Scientific names of plants are given according to the rules of the International Code for Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN), now called the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi and plants (ICN).

Animal names follow a separate code, the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN), so option (d) is for animals. The other two options are not real codes.
