Solution

The correct option is D angiosperms
Double fertilization is the fusion of two male gametes brought by pollen tube to two different cells of the same female gametophyte in order to produce two different structures. It is found only in angiosperms where it was first discovered by Nawaschin in 1898 in Fritillaria and Lilium.
