Question

In the following group of plants, sporophytes are dependent on gametophytes.

• A. Bryophyta
• B. Pteridophyta
• C. Gymnosperms
• D. Angiosperms

Hint:

In Bryophytes, the sporophyte relies on the gametophyte for survival and is typically smaller and dependent.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

In Bryophyta, the sporophyte is dependent on the gametophyte for nutrition, as it is not fully independent. This is in contrast to other plant groups like Pteridophyta, Gymnosperms, and Angiosperms, where the sporophyte is dominant and independent.
