Solution

The correct option is C Monocots and dicots
Angiosperms are also called as flowering plants that are classified based on characteristics that include cotyledon structure, pollen grains, as well as flower and vascular tissue arrangement. Basal angiosperms, classified separately, contain features found in both monocots and dicots, as they are believed to have originated before the separation of these two main groups. Monocots contain a single cotyledon and have veins that run parallel to the length of their leaves; their flowers are arranged in three to six-fold symmetry. Dicots have flowers arranged in whorls, two cotyledons, and a vein arrangement that forms networks within their leaves.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
