Solution
Psilotum
Psilotum belongs to the genus of fern-like vascularised plants.
It is one of two genera in the family Psilotaceae also known as whisk ferns.
The plant body is the sporophyte and is less differentiated.
The sporophyte is the diploid phase that forms a diploid zygote and forms the haploid spores by reduction division.
The sporophytes of the Psilotum are dominant, independent, and free living.
The plant body has a branched rhizome system and an aerial system that is slender, green, and dichotomously branched.
