Solution

The correct option is A Water
Ferns require water for their fertilisation. Water is the main pollinating agent. Through water, the reproductive gametes will undergo pollination. The gametes will reach the female reproductive system through pollen tube. Then fusion happens, which results in the production of zygote. It later develops to form embryo. Alternates between dominant sporophytic stage and gametophytic stage.
