      Which among the following produce seeds? (a) Thallophyta                  (b) Bryophyta                    (c) Pteridophyta               (d) Gymnosperms

    Answer:

      (d) The reproductive organs in the members of Cryptogams (seedless plants), i.e., thallophyta, bryophyta and pteridophyta are inconspicuous or hidden. They producs naked embryos after fertilization (union of male gamete with female gamete) that are called spores. In the case of phanerogams (seed bearing plants), i.e., the gymnosperms and angiosperms, seeds are produced after fertilization. They contain embryo along with stored food. The stored food provides nourishment to the developing embryo. Gymmosperms bear naked seeds while the angiosperm bears seeds enclosed in a fruit (the ovules are inside the ovary).
